“144 Hours”Awaits Your Encounter in Anyang
By Li Lin and Yang Zhitian, Henan Daily Client
On July 15th, the National Immigration Administration announced that a 144-hour visa-free transit policy would be implemented at the Zhengzhou Airport Port in Henan Province, allowing stays throughout the administrative region of Henan, effective immediately. Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport has been newly added as a port eligible for this 144-hour visa-free transit policy.
A visit to China is incomplete without a trip to Yinxu, and a glimpse into Chinese culture necessitates an exploration of oracle bone inscriptions. Within these 144 hours, or six days, Anyang, Henan, awaits your encounter. “During these 144 hours, foreign friends can enjoy a long-awaited performance at the Anyang Sports and Cultural Center, delve into the origins of Chinese writing at the Chinese Character Museum, or embark on a time-travel adventure at the YinxuMuseum and theTomb of Cao Cao. They can also experience the thrill of paragliding amidst the Taihang Mountains and immerse themselves in the picturesque scenery of China’s Painting Valley in Shibanyan Town,”said a responsible official from the Anyang Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Tourism, and Sports.
Culture is the soul of tourism, and tourism is the carrier of culture. In Anyang, where culture and tourism are deeply integrated, you’ll always find a destination that suits your travel preferences. Strolling through the streets of Anyang, one can sense the profound cultural atmosphere rooted in over 3300 years of written history, instilling a sense of confidence and pride. Standing tall on the Taihang Mountains, the 1500-kilometer-long Red Flag Canal winds its way through cliffs and precipices, inspiring awe not only for its natural beauty but also for the indomitable spirit of the people of Anyang. The city boasts World Heritage Sites like Yinxu, the birthplace of Zhouyi philosophy at Lane City, and the “Bestin Asia and World-Class”international paragliding base at Linlv Mountain.
“This policy is fantastic. With Anyang’s rich cultural heritage and scenic attractions, it’s only a matter of time before ‘A Must-Visit in China: Anyang’becomes a reality,”said Chen Lei, a local cultural tourism worker, excitedly sharing his thoughts on the 144-hour visa-free policy. Chen believes that as one of China’s eight ancient capitals, Anyang possesses profound cultural foundations and tourism resources, including the allure of oracle bone inscriptions, the backing of World Heritage Site Yinxu, the allure of the Red Flag Canal for red tourism, the serene greenery of Taihang Grand Canyon, and the propagation of Zhouyi culture at Lane City. “Foreign tourists will surely love Anyang!”Chen confidently asserted.
“I’ve always thought of each scenic spot in Anyang as a flawless pearl. With a little polishing and a thread to connect them, they’ll form a stunning necklace,”said Du Xiaoqing, the owner of a homestay named “Beyond the Willows, a New Village Awaits”in Linzhou. I sincerely hope that Anyang can seize this opportunity, plan strategically, and leverage the ‘144 Hours’policy to empower its cultural tourism. I believe that in the near future, the streets of Anyang will be filled with foreigners of all skin colors enjoying their visits.”
“Anyang has the capacity to host visitors, and we’re eagerly anticipating the moment when we can invite more foreign friends to play,”said Zhang Huawei, the head of China Travel Service AnyangBranch.
“Will foreigners also enjoy our Daokou roast chicken?”chuckled the owner of a roast chicken shop on Delong Street in Anyang. “As Anyang’s tourism flourishes, we’ll be able to introduce our roast chicken to foreigners, letting them savor the deliciousness of Chinese roast chicken as well.”
144 hours, six days, an encounter with Anyang promises unforgettable surprises.
