A little bit of Wuxi popped up in central Berlin from March 8 to 13, promoting tourism to the Jiangsu city at the 51st Berlin International Tourism Fair (ITB).
It's the eighth straight year that Wuxi has arrived in the German capital to attend the ITB, the world's largest tourism trade fair.
Wuxi's booth was decorated as a corner of Huishan Ancient Town from the famous Xihui Scenic Area, complete with white walls, black tiles, an arched doorway, red lanterns and oil-paper umbrellas.

The tourism bureau's booth attracted 2,000 visitors on the first day of the show, signing a pair of deals with overseas tour operators to cooperate on tourism exchanges.
The Wuxi delegation launched a new English language travel brochure and guide map, as well as several one and two-day travel routes covering landmark scenic spots in Wuxi such as the ancient town and Turtle Head Isle.
