Since China’s trial visa-free policy for South Korea
South Korean travel bookings to China increase

According to data released by South Korea’s largest travel agency on the 25th, from the day the visa-free policy was released on November 1st to the 21st, the number of bookings for Chinese group tours increased by 110% month-on-month. In addition to Zhangjiajie and Changbai Mountain, the popularity of cities such as Qingdao, Shandong is also rising.

However, with the implementation of the visa-free policy, the Korean tourism market to China has gradually become younger..In particular, Chinese food has become very popular in South Korea in recent years.

Thanks to the implementation and expansion of the visa-free policy, South Korean people expect to have more flexibility in time and more diverse choices when traveling to China in the future.
