The Attica Region agreed with the Embassy of China in Athens to set up a five-member working group that will oversee joint initiatives for the promotion of tourism.
The news was announced this week after a meeting between Attica Regional Governor Nikos Hardalias and China’s Ambassador to Athens Xiao Junzheng.
The two officials agreed to work together to strengthen Greece-China ties through culture, tourism, education, and city twinning initiatives.
