Tour Information Tour map

Tour in summer of 2008 will be very attractive in China because of the upcoming Olympic Games to be held in Beijing. October and November 2008 will be also very comfortable for tours, not only because of the reasonable tourist volume but because these two months are maturing season for citrus. The rivers, mountains and plains will become more colorful because of the decoration of the orange fruits and green leaves. While you are touring around China before and after the congress, you may visit the major citrus growing regions in the Three Gorges Area, Guangdong, Guangxi, Zhejiang Provinces, and Chongqing municipality. There are optional pre- and post- congress scientific tours, one day mid-congress city tour and an optional companion tour program for delegates and their companions.
