Qabil Ashirov read more A group of Chinese tourists visited Azerbaijan for the first
time after the Covid-19 pandemic, Azernews reports, citing Azerbaijan's State Tourism Agency.
Recall that, in 2019, the Azerbaijani State Tourism Agency and
the Chinese Culture and Tourism Ministry had signed the Memorandum
of Understanding on the simplification of group visits of Chinese
tourists to Azerbaijan. Besides, Azerbaijan has been included in
the list of countries that Chinese tourists can visit.
The Tourism Agency noted that in the coming years, it is planned
to intensively resume marketing and promotion work in China and to
hold events aimed at increasing the number of Chinese tourists.
Within the framework of the simplified visa regime for citizens of
the People's Republic of China, the "ASAN Visa" electronic system
is applied. Currently, flights from Urumqi to Baku are carried out
once a week.
According to the Azerbaijan's State Tourism Agency, 1,279 people
have traveled from China to Azerbaijan in the first quarter of
2023, which is 3.5 times more compared to the same period last
year, and a 40 percent recovery compared to the same period of
2019.
