The Host City Xiamen
XIAMEN (Amoy) locates in the southeast coast of China, facing Taiwan, acclaimed as the Garden on the Sea and Coastal Metropolis. It is one of the 4 earliest Special Economic Zones, Free Trade Experimental Areas and an international shipping center in southeast China. Xiamen owns the age-old marine culture, with robust coastal tourism and outdoor recreation market, showing great potential. It houses Gulangyu, which is one of China’s first 5A Class tourist attractions. The former US president Nixon extolled Xiamen as the Oriental Hawaii.
Currently under the China government strategy of One Belt One Road, Xiamen is striving to develop its marine economy and speeding up tourism cooperation with ASEAN and Silk Road countries. With the total investment of RMB 18 billion, the home harbor of Xiamen international cruise will be completed in 2018 and RMB 4 billion is scheduled to be invested in the construction of tourist projects such as Tour around Xiamen Island and View Jinmen Island on the Sea.
