By the end of 2024, China extended the stay for transit visa-free visitors to 240 hours, added 21 more ports for transit visa-free entry and exit, and expanded the permitted activity areas. Longer stays and broader activity areas not only facilitate foreign tourists in planning their itineraries across provinces and regions to experience the vastness and diversity of China but also promote the sharing of tourism resources, generating economies of scale, enhancing openness and fostering outward economic growth. As more foreign tourists come to China for unique experiences, the trend of "Traveling in China" continues to evolve.

They no longer settle for traditional tourist spots but delve into the streets, immersing themselves in local customs and culture. They visit rural markets, stroll through community markets and participate in morning exercises in neighborhood parks.

Foreign visitors unlock new experiences, portraying a more authentic, comprehensive and vibrant China through their lenses for a broader audience to appreciate.
