The city of Sanya launched a tourism promotion center in New Delhi on Aug 23 to increase its exposure and influence in India.
More than 30 million Indian residents went on outbound travels in 2018, making up the second largest tourism source for Asian countries. Possessing great development potential, India has attracted many tourism countries and regions eager to tap into the Indian market.

The wedding market in India is huge, and our business has developed rapidly in recent years. The tourism resources of Sanya are very suitable for Indian people to hold weddings.
