Hubei's tourism resumes, cautiously

China Daily  

The Tribe of the Three Gorges scenic area attracts tourists with its natural views and ethnic culture. Wuhan's authorities initiated ongoing testing of all residents after new cases of COVID-19 were diagnosed, raising concerns over its tourism recovery. "The new cases will affect Wuhan's tourism and interprovincial travel in the short term. But over the long term, the influence will ebb as confidence in the market is gradually restored," says Yan Qi, who's in charge of CTG Travel's business in Wuhan. China Tourism Academy associate research fellow Zhan Dongmei says Hubei's tourism industry, especially Wuhan's, is recovering at a slower pace than its counterparts.
