Gansu to boast seven motor home parks

Gansu province will build seven motor home parks in 2016 to facilitate self-drive tourism, the Gansu Provincial Commission of Industry and Information Technology announced.

The parks will be distributed in seven cities from the east Loess Plateau to the west Hexi Gobi Desert, including Tianshui, Pingliang, Lanzhou and Dunhuang.

With self-drive tours becoming popular in Gansu, the local government has formulated a series of plans for tourists in 2016. For example, outdoor activity camps and motels will be built to provide parking, shopping and maintenance services.

The Gansu Provincial People's Government will erect self-drive tour signage and encourage car rental enterprises to improve cross-regional services to promote self-drive touring.
