From bustling night markets in Beijing to scenic rail journeys across the Yangtze, the Chinese mainland is fast becoming a favorite for Indonesian travelers exploring new horizons.
During a recent interview with Ioana Gomoi on CGTN, Ni Made Ayu Marthini, Indonesias deputy minister of marketing at the Ministry of Tourism, highlighted the growing appeal of Chinese mainland destinations among Indonesians. She noted that a blend of rich cultural festivals, modern infrastructure, and techfriendly services is reshaping visitor experiences.
Doubledigit growth in bookings from Indonesia reflects this trend, as travelers embrace highspeed rail connections, digital payment options, and curated tours in emerging hot spots like Sichuan and Hainan. Joint marketing campaigns and streamlined evisa processes, paired with expanded flight routes, are set to deepen cooperation in 2024.
For business and tech enthusiasts, the Chinese mainlands digital ecosystems—AIpowered translation kiosks, appbased hotel checkins and virtual reality cultural tours—offer a glimpse into the future of travel. Thought leaders also applaud early talks on sustainable tourism initiatives, from ecotrails to communityled homestays.
As young global citizens share #ChinaTrip stories from Chengdus spice markets to Silk Road relics, the Chinese mainland continues winning hearts through innovation, culture and collaboration.
