2023-02-10    

After three years in the doldrums, the Chinese tourism market rebounded strongly during this year’s Spring Festival thanks to the broad easing of the country's stringent pandemic restrictions. In a move to boost activity in the cultural tourism sector and attract visitors to Weifang, a city with a rich history in China’s Shandong province, the 2023 Weifang (Shanghai) Tourism Promotion Meeting and Weifang Tourism Promotion Month Launch Ceremony were held at InterContinental Shanghai Hongqiao NECC On February 9.

The event was hosted by the Weifang Municipal People's Government, organized by the Weifang Municipal Administration of Culture and Tourism and co-organized by Joyu (Lvmama) Group. Shanghai Municipal Administration of Culture and Tourism deputy director and party group member Zhang Qi, KChance Tourism Consulting & Operation Institute chairman and Joyu (Lvmama) founder Hong Qinghua, and Weifang Municipal People's Government vice mayor Di Bo were present at the meeting. More than 100 guests attended the event, including representatives of culture and tourism organizations, leading travel agencies, tourism associations, cultural and tourism firms, and journalists from the two cities.

The event, themed "Weifang, More Than the World Capital of Kites!", showcased the charismatic qualities of Weifang’s cultural attractions and points of interest through the presentation of promotional films alongside an exhibit of cultural and tourism products. Also featured were the release of policies designed to assist in the promotion of tourism, a strategic agreement signing ceremony, a ceremony for the launch of the promotion month, and negotiations between tourism firms. The leading tourism agencies in the two cities plan to take the lead in working with the respective government agencies to heighten awareness of and enhance the influence of Weifang's culture and tourism market.

Mr. Zhang, the Shanghai Municipal Administration of Culture and Tourism deputy director, delivered the welcome speech, highlighting the many and frequent exchanges that Shanghai and Weifang have engaged in concerning mutual concerns and collaborations especially on the topics of the economy, culture and society. Shandong (the province where Weifang is located) is not only an important source of tourists for Shanghai's cultural venues, but also the most popular vacation destination for its denizens. He added that we expect the two cities to not only jointly write the next chapter in the history of China’s domestic tourism sector as we enter a new era categorized by higher expectations among travelers, but also join hands in facilitating a better life for their respective residents.

Mr. Hong, the Kchance chairman and Joyu (Lvmama) Group founder, expressed in his speech his strong optimism for the future of Weifang's rich cultural tourism resources. He said that Joyu (Lvmama) Group will deploy its integrated advantages in planning, investment, construction, operation and sales, as well as adopt a new approach to how it views the available resources and prospective market with an eye to selecting and bringing together the best partners to undertake the integrated development of Weifang’s culture and tourism.

In his opening speech, Mr. Di, the Weifang Municipal People's Government vice mayor, said that Weifang is considered the world’s birthplace of kites, where more than 150 historical personalities such as Su Shi  (1037-1101),a renowned Chinese poet,and female poet Li Qingzhao(1084-1155) once lived or stayed in Weifang,and where they wrote poems that have been recited for thousands of years. The city is surrounded by mountains and the sea. It is a place where ancient China’s Qi and Lu cultures blended and the region’s maritime and farming civilizations intersected and merged. The thousands of years that has elapsed since the city was founded have yielded Weifang’s unique scenery and enduring cultural heritage. Weifang’s 9.4 million residents, known for their warm hospitality, welcome all visitors, whether for sightseeing or for leisure, to come and enjoy all that Weifang has to offer! Let’s not forget Shanghai’s many entrepreneurs, welcome to invest in the city with a great future!
