To build a world-class tourist attraction and attract more overseas visitors, Sanqingshan UGGp will take the global stage, tell the Chinese story of the Geopark well, continuously upgrade area services, and enrich the connotation of its resources.
Going forward, the Geopark will continue to improve services for inbound tour groups. It will launch a "green channel" for inbound tourism in the area, add multilingual audio guide devices and multilingual volunteer services, and upgrade facilities such as toilets. It will also optimize the acceptance environment for foreign bankcards, increase the coverage of foreign card acquiring services by banks and payment institutions, and enhance the convenience of mobile payment. This will help the Geopark to play a leading and exemplary role in building a "world-class tourist destination" and further implement the "Attracting Tourists to Jiangxi" initiative.
