Guizhou's ancient beauty a magnet for international visitors
Enchanting blend of architecture, landscape draws rave reviews
James Anthony Gensheimer, a photographer from the US, expressed his astonishment at the development of cities in Guizhou province and said the advanced bridges and technologies were beyond his expectations. "I knew little about China and nothing about Guizhou, but by standing here, I feel it is really different from what I learn from the media," said Gensheimer.
In recent months, China has rolled out several visa-free policies and measures to facilitate inbound tourism, leading to an influx of global travelers to popular destinations including Guizhou.
The inland province has sought to further expand its market presence. It has organized promotional events, focusing on culture, tourism as well as trade, in key markets, including France, the US, Canada, Indonesia, Thailand, Laos, Singapore, Japan and South Korea. These initiatives have boosted cooperation between Guizhou and these important sources of tourists.
The event, Visual@China Guizhou 2024, represents an innovative exploration in visual expression and global communication by Guizhou.
Based on what they have seen and experienced in the province, the experts are creating a series of artistic works that reflect their individual styles.
Via their lens and brushes, the beauty of Guizhou, with its lush landscapes and vibrant ethnic culture, as well as its openness and vitality, will be seen by a larger audience in the world, presenting a more authentic, multidimensional, and comprehensive image of China.
