Recent years have seen a
tendency in China that
tourism is growing
faster. According to a recent survey made by some
experts, about 47%
urban residents travel regularly, and 28% rural residents also make
their tour across the country. The survey also shows that more people
are interested in
tourism, and will join the army in the future.
Facing this
tendency, we can’t help exploring some underlying factors
that are responsible. In the very first place, with the policy of
reform and opening up, Chinese people’s living standard has been
greatly improved, and therefore, most of them can afford to travel
around. What’s more, it is believed that people now take a more
positive attitude to tourism, and regard it as a life style. In
addition, tourism facilities are becoming better and better. For
example, transportation develops fast, and many scenic spots are
available now.
Though there are still some problems with tourism, I personally
believe that tourism should be playing a key role in our life. I also
hope that our government will make policies to create a better
environment for tourists
