China welcomes foreign friends to add China to their travel bucket list, and experience China's time-honored history by visiting heritage sites such as the Great Wall, feast their eyes on natural wonders such as the glinting West Lake, discover application of cutting-edge technologies, and feel the spirit of humanity embodied in winter dining delights, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said on Tuesday.

Lin made the remarks at a regular press conference in response to the rapid growth of "China Travel". It's reported that in recent months, the posts, pics and video clips about "China Travel" have been trending on overseas social media. A video tagged with "China Travel" garnered over 80 million views on YouTube, and videos with the same tag received nearly one billion views in total on TikTok.
Lin said that he also saw quite a few "China Travel" videos posted by foreign internet users. Through their lens, many foreign friends offer a glimpse of the thriving and modern cities in China as well as the hustle and bustle of ordinary Chinese. Some of these curious visitors have never been to China, and others have visited our country more than once.
Lin noted that in recent months, China has implemented a complete mutual visa exemption with 26 countries. China has issued a unilateral visa-free policy for 38 countries, including France and Germany, a visa-free transit policy for 54 countries, and reached mutual visa-free agreements with 157 countries and regions.
On Tuesday morning, China fully eased and improved the visa-free transit policy, extending the permitted stay for eligible foreign travelers to 240 hours, or 10 days, from the original 72-144 hours. Twenty-one ports of entry and exit have been added for visa-free transit individuals. Foreign nationals entering China through the visa-free transit policy can make cross-province travels within the allowed areas, Lin added. (By Ma Ziqian/China Youth Daily)
