Gaibi, the image ambassador of the Netherlands Tourism Administration and the head of Yangjiao Village, said in an exclusive interview with reporters recently that China's announcement to expand the scope of unilateral visa free countries on a trial basis will give more Dutch people the opportunity to visit China and bring positive impacts to the tourism industry of the Netherlands and China.
China recently announced its decision to expand the scope of countries with unilateral visa exemption on a trial basis, and to implement a unilateral visa exemption policy for ordinary passport holders in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Malaysia on a trial basis.
"I am very glad that China has introduced a new visa policy, and my Dutch friends are all talking about it warmly," Gaby told reporters, "they are looking forward to going to China, and I believe they will love China."
She said that China not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also has rich cultural resources. There are too many tourist destinations worth experiencing and tasting by foreign tourists.
She believes that this policy will attract more foreign tourists to China and benefit China's tourism industry. More Dutch people will go to China to establish cultural and economic ties with China, which will drive more Chinese people to want to know more about the Netherlands and help the recovery of tourism in the Netherlands and Europe. Her hometown Yangjiao Village will also welcome more Chinese tourists.
Gaby said that out of her love for Chinese culture and work needs, she often travels to China and finds new things every time she goes to China. She shared with reporters her recent travel experience to Jiangsu, Shaanxi, Hebei and Anhui, especially some new destinations she found, such as Xixi South Village, Huangshan City.
Gaby also shared his experience of learning about tea culture, learning to cook, and experiencing farm work in China. She said that tourism is not only to enjoy the beautiful scenery, but also to promote the relationship between people and the harmony between people and nature.
Yangjiao Village, located in Upper Ethel Province in the northeast of the Netherlands, is a picturesque water town. In recent years, Yangjiao Village has attracted more and more Chinese tourists. According to the Netherlands Tourism Administration, Amsterdam, the capital, is the most popular destination for Chinese tourists, followed by Yangjiao Village.
