Foreign companies are eyeing China as potential market for recreational vehicles. Xu Lin reports in Dusseldorf.

This year's Caravan Salon Dusseldorf, one of Europe's largest exhibitions of mobile homes and caravans, was attended by not just the residents of the German city of Dusseldorf, but also those from other parts of the country and the Continent. The show was held from Aug 29 to Sept 6.

Many middle-aged couples and elderly people brought their dogs along to the fair, where some 130 companies set up stalls to show and sell their recreational vehicles.
