The average expenditure per trip will decrease but the number of trips will increase and, mainly for younger, the trend is seeking for experience to share over the social media.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, shopping is no\u00a0longer the main travel motivation and the average expenditure has decreased as a percentage of the total. Chinese travellers own more information, are more independent and buy less shopping tours preferring other kinds of <strong>experiences linked to cultural aspects<\/strong>. This trend is stronger among the younger generations.<\/p>\n<p>In this scenario, according to Jing Daily, <a href=\"https:\/\/jingdaily.com\/italy-chinese-tourists\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Italy<\/strong> is one of the most popular destinations among Chinese<\/a>\u00a0tourists, notwithstanding it lacks convenience and it showed some racism cases. Minor destinations, such as Sardinia and Sicily, became more popular as an alternative of Rome and Florence, <a

2018<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>At <strong>Twissen<\/strong> we observed that Chinese travellers, mainly affluent and young, ask for more experiences (also while shopping) during their trips, they expect to pay via their mobile, want to communicate and to be informed in Mandarin language and, when it is time for shopping, they love quality products and, most of all, a significant discount.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chinese tourists are looking for cultural
