The results of the "Ranking and Analysis Report of China's Top Ten Tourism Cities in 2005" show that the ranking of China's top ten tourist destination cities in 2005 has tended to be stable compared with 2004. Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, The top ten cities in 2005, including Guangzhou, Chengdu, Wuhan, Nanjing, Qingdao, and Tianjin, are exactly the same as those in 2004, with only slight changes in ranking. The top 10 can be roughly divided into four levels. Specifically, the first two cities, Beijing and Shanghai, are still untouchable, so they belong to the first level. Among the 3-5 rankings, Guangzhou gradually declined, falling out of the top three and ranking fifth. Hangzhou and Shenzhen rose steadily, each advancing one place; the rankings of 6-8 are very interesting. Nanjing, Wuhan, and Chengdu in 2004 have become Chengdu, Wuhan, and Nanjing in 2005. What’s even more coincidental is that 9-10 Qingdao and Tianjin also came to join in the fun. In 2004, this ranking happened to be Tianjin and Qingdao. This ranking is mainly based on Dragon Hotel's statistics on the total number of room reservations in each city from January 1 to December 31, 2005, and refers to the booking data of E Dragon vacation products in 2005. As one of the largest travel product distributors in China, E-Dragon can provide 20-70% discount booking services for nearly 3,100 star-rated hotels in 280 cities in China, and provide a full set of vacation products and services to 720 destinations around the world. wait. And has a powerful database management support system. In order to provide valuable reference for the development research of various regions and cities in China, eLong has released annual rankings and analysis reports of the top ten tourist destination cities for five consecutive years, and regularly releases survey reports on popular tourist destinations in China every May 11th During Golden Week. Point 1: Hangzhou Hangzhou: Every time I see Hangzhou in the top three, I can't help but ask: When will Hangzhou really sit in the top spot, instead of coming and going like a regular visit? In recent years, as Hangzhou's economic strength has increased, it has gradually transformed from a purely tourist city into a city where business and tourism go hand in hand. In addition to the world's paradise, the hometown of culture, the hometown of silk, the tea city and the land of plenty, looking at Hangzhou, many hard indicators show that Hangzhou is developing rapidly: its economic aggregate has ranked second among provincial capital cities in the country for many consecutive years, and third among sub-provincial cities. The city's competitiveness Second only to Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou. The Hangzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone, which has attracted many Fortune 500 companies, has an increasing influence on Hangzhou. Hangzhou, where the six industrial chains of communications, software, integrated circuits, digital TV, animation and online games are beginning to take shape, is looking forward to a paradise called Silicon Valley. Driven by economic development, Hangzhou's famous American tourism industry is playing a role in systematic development and overall planning. Whether it is the repair and maintenance of famous attractions or the introduction and development of new attractions, it is natural, smooth and effective. But the fact that it has never been able to gain a foothold in the top spot always seems to remind Hangzhou that a city's comprehensive strength and profound heritage not only need to be improved, but also need to be accumulated. Beijing and Shanghai: Beijing and Shanghai, which always hold first and second place, will never be a surprise to those who look at the list. If one day, Beijing or Shanghai will disappear from the list, I don't know whether we should feel sorry or grateful for it. Point 2: The roundabout city of Chengdu: As a tourist city, Chengdu has always lacked tourism resources, historical monuments, and surrounding charming natural scenery. Even the world-famous Chengdu food is fascinating. However, in recent years, what seems to have kept Chengdu's reputation stable and rising is the city of leisure. Many urban white-collar workers and petty bourgeoisie always regard Chengdu people's leisure as the highest state of life. It seemed that as soon as they arrived in Chengdu, the air and time became soft instantly.

At the same time, a more convincing and direct data is: in 2005, Chengdu received more than 500,000 inbound overnight tourists, a year-on-year increase of 22.36%, and tourism foreign exchange revenue was US$176 million, a year-on-year increase of 25.65% ; It received 36.1963 million domestic tourists, a year-on-year increase of 12.57%; total tourism revenue was 28.675 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 25.53%. On the one hand, this doting benefits from the Land of Abundance and Chengdu’s comprehensive strength. This is a silent progress. Quietly, the number of Chengdu's top 500 companies has reached 100. 2005 was the year with the largest number of Fortune 500 companies in the world. The number of Fortune 500 companies reached 100. This is an important threshold and marks Chengdu's increasingly important position in the strategies of multinational enterprises. The relevant person in charge of the Chengdu Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau described Quanbai this way.

It is foreseeable that in the next few years, Chengdu, as a representative of western cities and even the fourth city, is expected to continue to dominate. The stance of progress and stability will continue to test Chengdu's patience and is an important topic in the coming years. Shenzhen and Guangzhou: Shenzhen and Guangzhou, ranked before Chengdu, are very strong. However, as representatives of old southern cities, they always feel a bit low-key, and it is difficult to say whether this is passive helplessness or a lack of subjective motivation. Whether it is Guangzhou or Shenzhen, it seems that they can always easily occupy a place in the top 10, but they always seem to have no outstanding performance to become a star city that attracts much attention. In line with the pragmatism of southern cities, keeping a close eye on Guangzhou and Shenzhen may be the most appropriate attitude. Wuhan and Nanjing: Wuhan and Nanjing, ranked second only to Chengdu, are equally strong. Taking Nanjing as an example, both the successful convening of the 10th National Games and the completion of the new Nanjing Station have added a lot of charm to Nanjing. Point 3: Confident Qingdao: The traditional impression of Qingdao among people can be beautiful. The pure and beautiful picture of blue sky and blue sea is completely in line with people’s imagination of a coastal city. There are the best bathing beaches here, the earliest aquarium in China, and the famous Laoshan. Similarly, like the sea of ??charm of Qingdao, famous Chinese companies are rooted here. Qingdao was awarded the title of China's Brand Capital at the 2005 China Independent Innovation Brand Summit and China Brand Economy City Summit. With 11 well-known Chinese trademarks, 44 Chinese famous brand products (the number is second only to Shanghai), and 2 Chinese world famous brand products, Qingdao is full of confidence in business and tourism. Taking the 29th Qingdao Olympic Sailing Games as an opportunity, it successfully carried out global promotion of the city's brand from the aspects of city image, investment promotion, tourism promotion, etc., demonstrating Qingdao's ability to harmoniously integrate the U.S. business and tourism industry. Tianjin: There is no shortage of historical accumulation and vigorous economic vitality. What Tianjin needs to create for itself is a city card with a more distinctive personality and characteristics. Outside the top ten: Xi'an, Chongqing, Xiamen and other cities are gradually approaching the top ten, while the rankings of Dalian and Suzhou have declined slightly. Outside the top ten, there is no completely refreshing dark horse, but there are definitely many capable people who have the ability to enter the top ten. Compared with the top 10 cities, the competition among the top 10 cities seems to be more intense. Looking at China's ranking among China's top ten tourist destination cities in 2005, the stable situation is unstoppable, but the performance of cities such as Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Qingdao is still outstanding. The relationship between economy and tourism is getting closer and closer, and the charm or comprehensive strength of a city is often a collection of many factors. The steady fine-tuning of 2005 looks quite memorable.
