The Consulate General of Sri Lanka – Guangzhou participated with the Guangdong Scenery International Travel Agency in the China (Guangdong) International Tourism Industry Exposition (CITIE) held from 10-12 September in Guangzhou, organised by the Department of Culture and Tourism of Guangdong Province.
