The Chinese Cultural Center in Cairo held a symposium titled "Tourism Bridge of Communication between People: Egypt and China as a Model" on Sunday night.
"China enjoys tourism and cultural diversity. It has all the tourist products in the fields of beach tourism, archeology, safari, festivals, exhibitions and conferences, as well as sports, therapeutic and educational tourism," said Nasser Abdel-Aal, former Egyptian tourism advisor to Beijing.
He described some tourist areas in China as "paradise on earth" and called on Egyptians to visit China and learn about its tourist attractions.
He said China was a "large tourist market" for Egypt, referring to the possibility of attracting large numbers of Chinese tourists to Cairo.
The symposium was part of the monthly Chinese Culture Salon organized by the center under the title "China in the eyes of the Egyptians."
