Also, there have been 19 airlines operating some 500 direct flights per week between Cambodia and China.
Khon said nearly half of the Chinese tourists to Cambodia have spent their time sightseeing the Angkor archeological park in Siem Reap province, as the rest visited coastal areas, Phnom Penh, and other tourist sites.
"Please continue to come to Cambodia," he appealed. "Our country is full of peace and has so many tourist attractions, and our hospitality is good."
Meanwhile, the minister said the Southeast Asian nation wanted to see more Chinese investment in building leisure resorts, luxury hotels, and tourism schools.
Ek Tha, a spokesman for the Phnom Penh-based Asian Cultural Council, said 2019 is a milestone year for culture and tourism relations between the two countries.
"Closer culture and tourism ties will bring closer contact and better understanding between the peoples of the two Asian countries," he told Xinhua.
He said good cooperation in culture and tourism between the two nations should stand as a role model because culture plays a vital role in bridging friendship and diplomacy, as tourism plays a key role in attracting tourists and investors.
BROADER CULTURAL COOPERATION, CLOSER PEOPLE-TO-PEOPLE CONTACT
For culture, the two countries had together organized a number of celebratory events in both countries such as arts performances, cultural exhibitions, film festivals, visit exchanges, and study tours, among others, said a spokesman.
