More international sports events will be coming to Taihu New City this year, including the International Karate League and other international martial arts events.
As a new eco-city demonstration area, a pilot area for scientific and technological innovation, a leader in modern industry, and an attractive place for high-end talent, Taihu New City has for the past ten years promoted the construction of artificial landscapes, tourism and recreational facilities. A number of key tourism projects have been carried out to improve the city's tourism, sports, and health industries.
Taihu New City aims to turn itself into a high-end holiday resort, which will in turn help Wuxi become one of the most attractive and distinctive cities in China, as well as a first-class city in terms of health and sports.
