Another opening ceremony for the "Poetic and Picturesque Zhejiang" Cultural Tourism Week (Hangzhou Day) and the 2020 Zhejiang (Beijing) Tourism Fair, two major events being held during the Beijing-Hangzhou Dialogue, was held in Beijing's Summer Palace on the afternoon of Sept 23.
During the event, Zhejiang authorities released five Grand-Canal-themed tourism routes within the province and announced that they will be distributing 500-million-yuan-worth ($73.35 million) of tourist vouchers, part of its marketing efforts for cross-provincial travel.
