Wuxi Culture and Tourism Development Group announced that it recently inked a deal with LY.com, China's leading travel-service provider, to expand its tourist market through the Internet.
Suzhou-based LY.com began operations in 2004 and offers obvious advantages in ticket booking and cruise travel tour services.
Its operating centers all over the country will be able to promote Wuxi to potential new visitors throughout China.
Over the upcoming Spring Festival, both organizations will cooperate in ticket booking and discounts.
For example, the price for the Liyuan Garden will be only 25 yuan ($3.8), around 40 percent off the original price. What’s more, visitors will get some discounts on the tickets for Turtle Head Island, Xihui Park, Plum Garden and the Wuxi Zoo.
