More and more Chinese tourists are discovering the Netherlands, with greater numbers making it their main destination when they travel to Europe. For Chinese tourists on group tours, the Netherlands is one of the must-go European nations along with France, Germany and Italy.
“The trend is that some Chinese just go to Europe to visit the Netherlands,” said Cai Xiaohui, deputy China director of the Netherlands Board of Tourism and Conventions. “Many want to have in-depth travels in the appealing country.”
Tourists come to enjoy a beautiful spring in the Netherlands when its iconic tulips come into bloom; and in summer, it’s a good time to travel with children. In the atrium of the Hague City Hall, an annual Spring Festival celebration will take place on Feb 17, which will have traditional Chinese dancing, music and acrobatics.
“The Netherlands is perfect for those who travel with children,” Cai added. “Parents can combine education and amusement and children love museums like the NEMO Science Museum, which has many interactive experiences.”
Online travel agency Ctrip’s data show that the number of Chinese visitors traveling to the Netherlands has grown rapidly in the past five years.
Compared with other European countries, there has been no recent terrorist attack in the Netherlands and it was included in the list of top 20 most peaceful countries.
