Sports paired with cross-cultural experiences
LCR has set a good example for the development of cultural and sport tourism, each year recording a huge number of visitors including not only locals but also tourists from around the world. For this, in addition to the stunning races, the Suzhou International Lohas Festival plays a big part, too.
The festival usually offers food, art performances and creative cultural products from different countries. It is common to see foreign stallholders enthusiastically peddling their products and foreign performers giving performances of exotic styles at the event.
This year, salsa dancing and graffiti experience activities and flash mob shows were added to the conventional roster to give the visitors better experiences.
