The 7th Guizhou Tourism Development Conference opens on April 23 in Bijie, Guizhou province.
Tourism plays a key role in Guizhou's mission to end poverty in the southwestern province, an official said on Monday.
The splendid scenery of Guizhou province has been to its inhabitants a bane for long.
Despite the province's steady rainfall and relatively mild climate year round, the rolling karst mountains that cover most of this area offer little arable land for farmers to grow crops.
Life has improved markedly for citizens of Bijie thanks to its rapid development, said Qin Rupei, Party chief of the city, which is located in Guizhou province.
