The event, organised by the Nanning Administration of Culture Broadcast and Tourism, invited influencers from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Indonesia to explore the area over six days, visiting six cities including Nanning and Beihai.
The influencers documented their experiences through videos and stories, highlighting the region's picturesque landscapes and cultural richness. From the flower seas of Qingxiu Mountain to the volcanic rocks of Weizhou Island, the campaign aimed to promote Beibu Gulf as an accessible and enticing destination for Asean tourists. "When they post it, Asean audiences just can't stop watching," noted one journalist, emphasising the campaign's success in engaging viewers.
Beibu Gulf's proximity to Asean countries and shared cultural roots make it a natural gateway for visitors. The region's attractions, such as the Detian Waterfall spanning China and Vietnam, and the historic Beihai port, offer a blend of familiar and novel experiences. The campaign also benefited from China's 240-hour visa-free transit policy, making travel easier for Asean visitors.
As the influencers return home with rich content, the Beibu Gulf's appeal continues to grow, promising to attract more visitors eager to explore its cultural and natural wonders
