A Chinese pavilion opened to the public at the 2024 Dutch Holiday Fair (Vakantiebeurs 2024) in Utrecht on Thursday.

Adorned with Chinese elements such as a begonia gate, screens depicting an ancient painting and vermilion colonnade, the pavilion is also decorated with the "Hello! China" national tourism brand.

Covering an area of 100 square meters, the pavilion houses exhibitors from the fields of tourism, aviation and visa services.

Chinese ambassador to the Netherlands Tan Jian told the opening ceremony of the Chinese pavilion on Wednesday that China has recently introduced a visa-free policy for Dutch citizens.

"Now travel is easy. Every week there are 36 flights between the Netherlands and China," he said.

China boasts not only delicious food, but also high-speed rail and rich culture, Tan underlined.

"Over the past decade, China has built 44,000 km of dedicated high-speed railway, the speed is 350 kilometers per hour," he said.

Jeroen van Hooff, CEO of the Dutch trade show and exhibition company Royal Jaarbeurs, said that he was happy to be at the Chinese pavilion because it is the first time in many years that China is attending the Dutch Holiday Fair.

"We have a strong relationship with China," he said, noting that his company is also attending trade fairs in China.

Meanwhile, former Dutch ambassador to China Ron Keller told Xinhua that he felt honored to be present at the opening of the beautiful Chinese pavilion, "welcoming Dutch people and basically all Europeans that are willing to come to China."

He also noted China's new visa-free policy. "I see so many Dutch people travelling to China, and China is certainly worth a visit."

Gabriella Esselbrugge, entrepreneur and Dutch tourism promoter, said she is going to China next week, where she will visit the cities of Nanjing and Yancheng in the eastern province of Jiangsu. Showing Xinhua a tourism promotion poster of the Suzhou gardens, she said she was looking forward to going there.

Wang Zheng, director of the China Cultural Center in Den Haag, which designed and constructed the Chinese pavilion, said the Dutch Holiday Fair is a good opportunity to promote Chinese culture and tourism.

"I hope that through this exhibition, exhibitors from other countries and regions will learn more about the huge potential of the Chinese tourism market, and promote exchanges between Chinese and foreign tourism industry players," Wang said.

This year marks the 53rd edition of the Dutch Holiday Fair, which was first held in 1970, and has since become the largest holiday-themed travel trade show for industry players in the Netherlands.

According to the organizers, more than 1,000 exhibitors from over 100 countries and regions are expected to participate in the fair, which will last from Wednesday to Sunday. Over 110,000 people are set to attend.
