'China Cool' appeals to international tourists in more ways than one
This summer as heat waves sweep across the world, foreign tourists are heading to China to escape the heat.
The appeal goes beyond the weather. It also comes from a variety of experiences available to visitors: learning traditional crafts, taking a high-speed train and interacting with robots. China received 22.91 million inbound foreign visitors in the first half of 2026, up 20.4 percent year on year. (Produced by Ma Yunzhe)
