The city of Nanning, capital of the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, received a total of 4.08 million visitors, up 18.81 percent, during the seven-day National Day holiday, according to the Nanning Tourism Development Board. 

With 879,500 overnight visitors during the holiday, the city has witnessed a sharp increase in total tourism consumption, which was nearly 2.5 billion yuan ($362 million), with year-on-year growth of 24.47 percent, showing that the overnight visitors play a significant role in promoting the local tourism industry.

Thanks to the all-for-one tourism strategy, a strategy to coordinate urban and rural resources and fuel tourism promotion, the city has developed several interesting tourism projects to attract more overnight visitors, integrating its culture, history, science and agriculture into the local tourism industry. This approach aims to create diversified tourism products to meet customers' personalized needs and give Nanning a distinctive tourism brand. 

Additionally, the city has also implemented big data and internet to provide quality service to visitors, and the government has applied real time monitoring to provide guidance to implement staggered shifts. Moreover, scenic areas and hotels have accelerated the upgrading of online querying, booking and payment in order to provide visitors with a better travel experience.
