It is addressed by the chief officer from the national tourism administration that the closed tourism mode in China should be broken and the “ticket economy” in the tourist industry will be cancelled. With the development of the internet, there are more and more people enjoy their backpack travelling. The concept as the “comprehensive management” is also introduced into the travel industry. For example, the scenic spot is extended to the whole city. Tourist can book a local resident house as their hotel at the destination. Their purpose for travelling is to enjoy the local native culture instead of the sightseeing. Considering this facts, many cities are upgrading their city facilities as the standard for the travelling city and develop more functions, (e.g. WIFI, public toilet and etc).

Dongjin comments:

The new trend for travelling industry will break the limitation to the scenic spot and say goodbye to the “ticket economy”. The scenic spot will pay more attention to the travel soft environment and the improvement of the related services. The foreign investors who have the advanced service concept and management ability can positively involve in the upgrading project in the travel industry in China.
