According to HSTD, it’s already the second splendid appearance on the international stage for Huangshan, after the London Trafalgar Square Chinese New Year Celebration event early in February. It is also a significant step in implementing Huangshan City's global promotion plan for the urban brand "Creative Huangshan, Beauty in Huizhou."
In recent years, Huangshan Tourism has been dedicated to international exchange, cooperation, and brand promotion. It has actively participated in internationally influential cultural and tourism exchange events such as the New York Asian Cultural Festival, the United Nations "Journey Through Civilizations" photo exhibition, and the New York "Chinese Night."
Simultaneously, there has been a continuous increase in efforts to promote the brand worldwide, showcasing the tourism resources and cultural heritage of the beautiful Huangshan to overseas residents and tourists through multi-dimensional, comprehensive, and close-range approaches.
