The number of Chinese tourists visiting Morocco has reached 118,000 in 2017. Since King Mohammed VI’s decision to grant Chinese citizens visa-free access from June 1, 2016, Morocco has witnessed remarkable increase in the number of Chinese tourists, which used to be no more than 20,000 each year.

Its location at the intersection of Europe and Africa makes Morocco a real crossroads bordered by the waters of the Mediterranean and open to the vast stretches of the Atlantic Ocean. This “farthest land of the setting sun” is rich in contrasts, a destination that beckons you to discover two millennia of history.

The main scenic spot of the popular movie “Operation Red Sea”, Morocco enjoys rich tourism resources with long stretches of coastline in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, as well as parts of the Sahara Desert, snow-capped mountains and ancient city sites.

BITM 2018 said it was honored to be the first-ever exhibition partner of the Moroccan National Tourist Office.
