The Ulaanbaatar – Manchuria Travel Conference was held in North East China, on October 17-20th.
The travel conference featured Mongolian travel exhibitions and workshops for the Chinese travel industry.
Manchuria is the largest region in China that borders with Russia. In the past several years, Manchuria has been a focus of Chinese authorities for development as a special region for vacations and tourism. Manchuria is visited by 4.6 million visitors a year, earning 6.9 billion CNY.
Mongolia's Hunnu Air launched an Ulaanbaatar-Choibalsan-Manchuria flight in October 2013 to provide opportunities for both Chinese and Mongolian passengers to travel between the regions.
Due to visa free policy in place for Mongolian and Russian passport holders, effective in November, parties are talking about possible ways to conduct Russia-Manchuria-Ulaanbaatar-Russia trans-regionional travel.
The Ulaanbaatar – Manchuria Travel Conference came after the Mongolia-China Travel Forum in Ulaanbaatar, held in June.
