A media registration system under the press center of the 2019 Beijing International Horticultural Exhibition opened to media from home and abroad on Monday, the organizing committee said.

Journalists can log onto the official website -- https://exhibitionreg.news.cn -- to sign up. Registration will close on Sept. 10.

After registering online, foreign journalists temporarily in China can apply for J-2 visas at Chinese embassies, consulates or other agencies abroad entrusted by the Chinese Foreign Ministry with the confirmation letter generated by the registration system.

The time and method for collecting the press cards will be announced on the official website of the Beijing expo in due course.

Open from April 29 to October 7 next year, the 162-day expo will exhibit the latest achievements in floriculture and fruit and vegetable farming at the foot of the Great Wall in northwest Beijing's Yanqing District.

So far, 110 countries and international organizations have confirmed attendance. It is expected that more than 16 million people will visit the expo this year.

This is the second time China will hold such a high-level horticulture expo. Southwestern Chinese city Kunming held the expo in 1999.
