China aims to attract 190 million inbound tourist visits a year by 2030, according to a new five-year tourism development plan, signaling the country's expanding efforts to draw overseas visitors as it seeks to boost consumption and deepen international exchanges.

The plan, approved by the State Council, targets inbound tourism spending of more than $150 billion annually by 2030, while calling for higher-quality tourism services and a stronger global presence for China's tourism industry.
