The Chinese travel and tourism economy grew 9.9% last year, more than twice the global rate and much faster than the 0.9% pace registered by the US, according to new data by the World Travel & Tourism Council, a trade group, and lead research partner Chase Travel.

Not necessarily, there are different types of travellers. Some people like packing many destinations into a short time and some prefer to spend more time on one place. We're pretty far off the original topic now though because not visiting China has nothing to do with the diversity or size of it but because the CCP is an authoritarian regime who can go fuck themselves. I'd like to go back to Europe sometime though.
