Colombia calling

Colombia is making a serious push to attract more Chinese visitors. Xu Lin reports.

For most Chinese tourists, Colombia represents picturesque scenery, Latin American culture and the magic realism of Nobel Prize winner Gabriel Garcia Marquez. They can actually do a tour called Gabo's Route to places where he lived and join gastronomical tours to taste the dishes he mentions in his books.

Last year, the Colombian government reached a peace deal with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, ending a more than five-decade armed conflict.
