Sustainable tourism in China

My sister who was on a Viking cruise to China sent these photos of a primary school in Jingzhou sponsored by Viking. It is a poor town.  It is a trend for companies to contribute something to the local economy (sustainable tourism). That certainly benefits both parties.  The tourists enjoyed the visit to the school and participated in certain activities.

  2. What a win win for all involved. The tourists have a wonderful opportunity to learn of their culture and the school benefits from the tourist.

  10. I think Bananya is some kind of cartoon over there. That's pretty cool that they got to interact with the kids.
