Officials from Guangxi in South China are looking for ways to attract more tourists from Mexico.

Earlier this week, Li Bin, vice chairman of Guangxi, visited Mexico city and spoke about Guangxi's growing tourism industry and the government's efforts to attract tourists from Mexico.

"This time in Mexico, we not only want to learn about its successful tourism strategy, but also to promote the beautiful scenery -- both cultural and natural-- found in Guangxi," Li said in a presentation which was also attended by Chinese ambassador(大使) Qiu Xiaoqi.

Guangxi's rich natural attractions and cultural heritage(遗产) make it a popular tourism place for both Chinese and foreigners, Li said.

Guangxi's top attractions include the famous Karst Mountains and Caves in the riverside city of Guilin, a UNESCO-listed World Heritage Site known for its unusually-shaped green hills.

Another popular sight is Zuojiang Huashan, home to rock paintings believed to be more than 2,300 years old.

Ambassador Qiu also praised the beauty of Guangxi. "I've been in Mexico five years, many friends know me, but very few know that I am from Guangxi," Qiu said. "I am going to do everything possible so that my birthplace becomes a place that helps develop the tourism and the human relations between our two countries," Qiu added.

In 2017, 520 million tourists visited Guangxi, including 5 million foreigner visitors.
