During the event, six wintertime travel routes in Yangzhou were recommended, featuring classical gardens, local specialties, hot springs and cultural heritages.

Many local travel agencies have promoted one-day and two-day tours for tourists from Shanghai and other cities along the new railway line, said Zhang Ronghui, deputy director of Yangzhou Tour Center.

According to the favorable policies on tourism released by the local government, students from colleges, middle schools and universities can visit six tourist attractions for free with valid certificates during the winter vacation, including Slender West Lake, Daming Temple, Geyuan Garden, Heyuan Garden, Hanling Garden or the imperial tomb of Guangling King, and the Memorial Hall of the Eight Eccentric Painters of Yangzhou.
