Dalian Municipal Bureau of Tourism has signed a tourism cooperation agreement with the tourism administrations of Harbin, Qiqihar, Mudanjiang, Daqing and Yichun, and with the Jingpohu Scenic Area Management Committee in Harbin.

Dalian and Heilongjiang are highly complementary in terms of tourism resources. They have already developed Dalian-Shenyang-Changchun-Harbin and Dalian-Dandong-Changbai Mountain-Jingpohu-Mudanjiang-Harbin tours for visiting central and eastern Northeast China. They will launch a Dalian-Harbin-Qiqihar-Daqing-Yichun-Mohe tour in the near future.

The parties will enhance regional cooperation in tourism through resource sharing, information exchanging, market interaction, and other means to build the tourism brand of Northeast China.
