China and New Zealand Set to Strengthen Tourism Bonds
Hey adventurers! 🌍 Big news for travelers eager to explore the wonders of New Zealand and China. In April 2024, Chinese visitors made up a whopping 10% of the 225,000 overseas visitors arriving in New Zealand, second only to our friends from Australia. 🇨🇳🇳🇿
During a recent meeting with New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, Chinese Premier Li Qiang announced that China will include New Zealand in its list of countries eligible for unilateral visa exemptions! 🛂✨ This means it's about to get a whole lot easier for Kiwis to visit China and for Chinese travelers to experience the magic of New Zealand.
Premier Li expressed hopes that New Zealand will also provide more conveniences for Chinese citizens visiting New Zealand. With evolving travel vibes and increased collaborations, the future looks bright for the tourism scenes in both countries. 🌟
Li's visit to New Zealand kicks off his three-nation tour from June 13 to 20, which will also take him to Australia and Malaysia. This journey marks a commitment to strengthening ties and promoting win-win cooperation across the region.
So, dust off those passports and start planning your next epic adventure! Whether it's the bustling streets of Beijing or the breathtaking landscapes of Queenstown, the world is opening up just for you. 🌄✈️
