The press conference and tourism promotion of the First “China-Zhangjiajie” World Heritage Photography Exhibition was held in Beijing on December 18, 2019, marking the exhibition opens.
Themed “Communication and Sharing, Protection and Inheritance”, the exhibition is sponsored by the China National Commission for UNESCO and the International Mountain Tourism Alliance; and, organized by the China Photographers Association and the Zhangjiajie Municipal People’s Government. The collection of exhibition works will last until August 31, 2020. Between November 16 and 22, 2020, the photos will be displayed in such scenic areas as Dayong Ancient Town, Wulingyuan (Tianzi Mountain) Scenic Area, Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area, and the Grand Canyon Scenic Area in Zhangjiajie. For more details, please check the official website of China Photography News website-CPPFOTO.
Ouyang Bin, Zhangjiajie vice mayor, believed that Zhangjiajie couldn’t become such a well-known tourist destination without the promotion of photography. He expected to take the exhibition as an opportunity to build Zhangjiajie into an image exhibition and image big data center, and an exchange center for world heritages. This would help promote and protect world heritages, inherit and share it with all the people, and contribute to the construction of the Zhangjiajie national demonstration zone of high-quality tourism and economic development.
