THE Hong Kong Tourism Board is eyeing the Indonesian market to promote tourism destinations in not only the more popular regions of Hong Kong and Macau, but also in the lesser known cities of Guangzhou, Zhongshan and Jiangmen.
These three cities are located in the province of Guangdong.
"[Last year] 6,366 Indonesian tourists visited Jiangmen," Hong Kong Tourism Board director Anthony Lau said during a promotional tour in Jakarta on Wednesday.
The senior manager and chief representative of Southern China at the Hong Kong Tourism Board, Simon Wong, added that Jiangmen, Guangzhou and Zhongsan had several interesting places to visit.
The Daiolou was an interesting historic structure for tourists to visit given that there are only 800 of the 3,000 towers left, he said.
As for Guangzhou, he said, the city is popular for its tea drinking traditions as well as culinary and shopping attractions.
"Meanwhile, Jiangmen is popular for its martial arts. One of Bruce Lee's instructors came from Jiangmen," Jiangmen Tourism Bureau director Cheng Bu Yi said as reported by kompas.com.
Cities in Guangdong province also promoted as tourism destinations.
