The First State-Sanctioned 1980 Travel Guide for Western Visitors

Published by China Travel and Tourism Press (Zhongguo Lüyou Chubanshe) at the opening of Deng Xiaoping's economic reform era, this 1980 volume served as the official state-authorized guidebook for foreign travelers entering the People's Republic of China.

The guidebook details travel regulations, CITS (China International Travel Service) tour routes, hotel accommodations, and regional transport across major cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Xi'an, Guilin, and Guangzhou, providing a rare historical snapshot of China's early post-Cultural Revolution tourism infrastructure.
