Tourism officials from all over the Balkans are angling for a bigger slice of the lucrative Chinese tourism market – although Croatia is doing best at luring Chinese holidaymakers by far right now.
Tourism ministers and experts from China and 16 Central and Eastern European countries attended a conference on September 18 to 20, in Dubrovnik, Croatia, to discuss further co-operation in the tourism sector.
Topics that were high on the agenda of the meeting included the necessity of introducing direct flights from China to the region, creation of joint tourism packages and further simplifying visa application procedures.
