The "Guizhou Travel" international tourism portal was launched during the recent 20th Guizhou Tourism Development Conference. This site serves as a one-stop digital gateway, allowing global travelers to discover unique, personalized ways to explore Guizhou and book cross-border itineraries.

It was launched in Chinese, English, Korean, and Thai, covering major global tourism markets. Beyond translation, the site uses intelligent language recognition and adaptive interface technology to provide a culturally intuitive experience for users.

It integrates tourism promotion, product booking, bespoke itineraries, and localized support, showcasing a full-chain service ecosystem spanning accommodation, dining, transportation, and cultural products.

One of the site's standout innovations is the "Huangxiaoxi" digital human – a 24-hour, bilingual AI assistant who is ready to answer queries regarding itinerary planning, entry policies, and scenic spot details.

It offers AI-guided tours and automated travelogue generation and eliminates service barriers caused by language differences and time zone gaps.

The site features seven major sections: explore destinations, travel guides, unique Guizhou, Guizhou by month, events and performances, service guides, and news. With short videos, panoramic VR views, and authentic user reviews, it offers an immersive look at Guizhou's natural wonders and ethnic heritage.

It also features an integrated e-commerce mall, where international tourists can book travel products and complete cross-border payments in one go. The site integrates major platforms like PayPal and Airwallex, supporting over 160 payment methods across 180 countries and regions, ensuring travelers can book their journey using the methods they trust most.
