Peru has planned to attract more Chinese tourists by offering them easier visa access, President of the National Tourism Chamber Carlos Canales said here Monday. Canales said standardizing visa applications and speeding up the approval process at Peruvian consulates in China's main cities were two of the measures under consideration. These steps would help boost the influx of Chinese tourists, including business and leisure travelers, and government officials on state business, he added. Canales had traveled to China recently to meet consular agents in Beijing and Shanghai to discuss ways of facilitating the implementation of the new policy. They intended to boost communication with Chinese travel agencies. Over the past five years, Peru has granted no more than 2,000 tourism visas to Chinese nationals.
