Abstract

Development of the tourism industry in China started from the China Travel Service founded by Mr. Chen Guangfu (1881~1976). In the last dozens of years, the global and Chinese tourism industry experienced continuous growth and deepening diversification, and became an economic department with the fastest growth. It can be said that modern tourism is closely connected with social development, including development of more and more tourism destinations. The tourism industry has become a major industry in the world wide. Meanwhile, tourism income is a major economic source of many developing countries and developing countries can benefit from sustainable tourism.
