――Natural scenery, skiing options, and fresh cuisine attract lifestyle-loving travelers
November 23, 2016 ―― The stunning natural beauty, Olympic-level ski resorts, and fresh cuisine of Vancouver, Canada, have made this city a favorite destination for Chinese travelers who value a high quality of life. Vancouver’s award-winning YVR International Airport is now receiving more direct flights from China than any other city in North America. A convenient 11-hour flight takes you here from Beijing or Shanghai. This year, the airport welcomed its first new direct route from Xiamen, and another route via Qingdao to Hangzhou will begin service on December 30, 2016.
Stephen Pearce, Vice President of Marketing for Tourism Vancouver, said: “Vancouver is a city surrounded by nature, where you can enjoy all of the following: culture and shopping within walking distance in the downtown core; skiing just 20 minutes away in pristine natural surroundings; and dining that emphasizes health, nutrition, and organic ingredients.”
