In recent years, Guizhou has actively developed comprehensive tourism based on its karst mountain landscapes, promoting the transformation of mountain resources into ecological products. The province has innovated in outdoor sports, cultural experiences, and other sectors, creating internationally recognized rural event brands such as the "Village BA." He extended a warm invitation to the Portuguese tourism industry to participate in the International Conference of Mountain Tourism and Outdoor Sports 2025, which will be held in Guizhou this September, and emphasized that Guizhou will continue to optimize its inbound tourism policies, looking forward to working with the Portuguese tourism industry to showcase the "Mountain Miracles" of Guizhou.

Assistant Secretary-General of the International Mountain Tourism Alliance, Wen Weiya, introduced the core mission and development history of the Alliance. In recent years, the Alliance has continuously enriched its dialogue channels and established a variety of communication platforms, including "International Mountain Tourism Day," the IMTA Annual Conference and Forum, the Dialogue Among World Famous Mountains, and the Mountain Tourism Promotion Conference. These initiatives have played a positive role in deepening international cooperation and promoting mutual learning of experiences. The seventh "International Mountain Tourism Day," successfully held on May 29 in Gran Canaria, Spain, centered around the theme "Embracing Mountains and Seas, Coexisting with Cultures-Mountain Tourism and Cultural Inclusiveness for the Future." The event brought together a diverse group of prestigious international organizations, government officials, industry leaders, experts, and scholars, and media professionals from around the world, exploring the path of inclusive, reciprocal, and shared development for global mountain tourism, further expanding the influence of the Alliance. Wen Wei expressed the hope that today's exchange would deepen mutual trust and cooperation with the Portuguese tourism industry, injecting new momentum into the revitalization of mountain villages and rural communities.
