Overview

Economic development in China has seen a growth in the tourism business. In 2015 alone, roughly 120 million Chinese traveled overseas from mainland China and ranked as the highest spending tourists in the world for the 4th consecutive year. However, many countries require that Chinese tourists meet certain conditions before entry visas are issued and it is travel agencies that assist tourists in the obtaining of these visas. In this episode of Asia Insight, we take a look at the Shanghai branch of Spring Tours, one of China's largest travel agencies.
