The theme of this expo is "Macau SAR's 25th Anniversary: Building a World Tourism and Leisure Center." The Gourmet and Wine Pavilion launched special products at a discounted price of "25" Macau patacas to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Macau SAR. In order to achieve complementary advantages and coordinated development of the industrial resources of Macau and Qingyin, an outdoor camping exhibition area was set up at the Macau venue to promote new developments in tourism in Macau and Qingyin through the concept of "one expo, two locations." For the first time, a "Belt and Road" Pavilion was set up to showcase specialty products from countries and regions along the Belt and Road, creating a new window for international display. The expo also included a thematic exhibition area for cultural and creative research, inviting institutions such as the Palace Museum, the National Museum of China, and patriotic education bases to participate, seizing the market potential of research and study.
During this event, the students actively followed the footsteps of their teachers and enjoyed fruitful exchanges. They not only gained knowledge about the unique products of various tourist destinations, but also broadened their understanding of the new directions for the development of the tourism industry. The expo deepened the students' awareness of future employment and study abroad options, enhanced their professional interests, and sparked their enthusiasm for learning. At the same time, through this expo, mainland China, Macau, and the international tourism industry will further enhance understanding, expand business opportunities, and achieve mutual complementarity and win-win cooperation.
