BEIJING, Nov. 22 (Xinhua) -- China is expected to
earn 156.5 billion US dollars from tourism in 2010, says Liu Kezhi, a senior
official with the China National Tourism Administration (CNTA).
Liu says the number of foreign tourists who will
spend at least one night in China is expected to jump to 68.8 million in 2010,
when domestic tourists are expected to take 1.78 billion overnight trips.
According to the CNTA, both the number of tourists
and the money they spent hit record highs last year. China's travel industry
catered to 1.363 billion tourists last year, up 10 percent, while tourism
revenue hit 97.8 billion US dollars, a year-on-year growth of 12.4 percent.
Some 36.69 million foreign tourists spent at least
one night in China, up 5.4 percent from a year ago.
China earned 23 billion US dollars from foreign
tourists in the first nine months with a year-on-year growth of 5.6 percent.
In the first nine months of the year, 25.61 million
Chinese traveled outside the mainland up 11 percent from a year ago.
