Tian Feng: China’s Ecotourism Expert

Editors — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 00:00:31 +0000

Ecotourism is a hot topic globally, but like any “green” trend, the ecotourism label can be more of a marketing scheme than an indicator of sustainability. In China, ecotourism is even more difficult to define. The term implies no particular environmental awareness. It can include rustic backpacking and closely-managed mass tourism complete with buses and paved roads. It may incorporate cultural education, the opportunity to buy local crafts, or merely a view of a lake.
