The 8-minute video, the newspaper, and the short video will bring you a quick experience of the tourism boutique and cultural innovation products of the district and county.

Last year, Chongqing held the first cultural tourism promotion event to promote culture and scenery in local districts and counties, which led to a 32.1% increase in tourism revenues and a 10% increase in the added value of the cultural industry, achieving good social and economic results.

Compare to the last year, the keyword of this year's activity becomes "online streaming." This year's activity requires the district and county mayor to stand on the stage to live in the network broadcast, introduce their own city's tourism boutique and cultural products, and, most importantly to sell products.

During the activity, Chongqing's 38 districts and counties (autonomous counties) and Liangjiang New Area, Chongqing High-tech Industrial Development Zone, and Wansheng Economic and Technological Development Zone will deeply explore the cultural tourism resource products and innovate the cultural tourism promotion mechanism. Employing live broadcasting and media publicity, they will display high-quality tourism products and cultural and creative products, guide locals to travel across Chongqing, and attract tourists from the world, to promote local sales and consumption.
