Wolfsburg started highly motivated to lay a foundation for their progression

BEIJING Womens Nike Air Presto SE Woven Shoes Black Australia , Sept. 30 (Xinhua) -- Inspired by homegrown films and TV shows, more travelers this year plan to explore destinations that had previously not been on Chinese tourists' radar.


According to data released this month by Qyer, a Chinese outbound travel website, the Czech Republic, Turkey and Switzerland have emerged as promising overseas destinations for tourists this year.


The website attributes this phenomenon to hit shows and movies featuring the countries.


Released in February, romance movie "Somewhere Only We Know Mens Nike Air Presto Flyknit Ultra High Shoes Blue Australia ," directed by famous Chinese actress Xu Jinglei, served as an advertisement for the Czech Republic, where the film was shot.


Two travel-reality shows, "Sisters Over Flowers" and "Divas Hit the Road", aired in March and April, respectively.


Both featured well-known Chinese actors backpacking their way through Europe and included Turkey as a destination.


It isn't the first time tourists have looked to TV and movies for travel ideas.


Chinese tourists have flocked to Thailand since late 2012 Women's Nike Air Vapormax 2018 Shoes Grey Pink Australia , when Chinese comedy "Lost in Thailand," shot on location in the northern city of Chiang Mai, became a blockbuster in China.


According to statistics from the Thai tourism authority, Thailand welcomed about 4.7 million visitors from China in 2013, jumping 68 percent from 2.7 million in 2012. The 2014 number dropped slightly to 4.5 million.


The newly released "Lost in Hong Kong," a sequel to "Lost in Thailand Mens Nike Cortez Classic Nylon Black Green Shoes Australia ," is expected to boost Hong Kong tourism in the last quarter of 2015, given its strong box office performance so far.


"Lost in Hong Kong" has grossed around 890 million yuan (140 million U.S.dollars) in its first six days since its debut on Sept. 25, according to Maoyan, a movie ticket sales platform.


Due to last year's Occupy Central movement and follow-up protests, mainland travelers' enthusiasm for Hong Kong has chilled.


Data from the Hong Kong tourism authority showed the number of mainland overnight visitors fell by 14 percent year-on-year during the three-day Tomb-Sweeping Day holiday in April.


Hong Kong witnessed an even larger year-on-year decrease of 15 percent in mainland visitors during the peak season of July and August.


But now, some Chinese travel websites have regained confidence in Hong Kong tours and already planned routes related to the movie to attract visitors.


About 107 million Chinese traveled overseas in 2014 Mens Nike Cortez Classic Nylon Grey Purple Shoes Australia , marking nearly 20-percent year-on-year growth, according to an official report issued by the China Tourism Academy in late August.


Chinese outbound visitors accounted for nearly 10 percent of the global total last year, the World Tourism Cities Federation (WTCF) said in a market research report released earlier this month.


The WTCF noted that over half of Chinese tourists travelled to other countries more than once last year, thanks to improved standards of living and rising income.


According to Qyer, Japan, Italy and the United States are the top three overseas tourist destinations for Chinese travelers during the upcoming seven-day National Day holiday Nike Classic Cortez Nylon Prm Shoes Burgundy White Australia , which starts on Oct. 1.


ACCRA, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) -- Ghana will not host the 2015 edition of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), minister of Youth and Sports Mahama Ayariga declared here on Monday.


According to him, given the concerns raised by health authorities, "the Sports ministry has indicated to the GFA President that we (Ghana) were unable to host the tournament".


The Confederation of African Football (CAF) had written to the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to consider hosting the continental soccer fiesta should Morocco stand down from hosting it.


When the story first broke, the sports minister had said the West African country Women's Nike Classic Cortez Nylon Prm Shoes Pink White Australia , which hosts the headquarters of the United Nations (UN) Mission for Ebola Emergency Response (UNMEER), was willing to consider stepping in to host the event.


This however drew sharp criticism from the general public, with Professor Kwadwo Koram, Head of the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research (NMIMR), the country's center where suspected Ebola cases are tested, advising government strongly against any such move.


Ayariga told Joy FM Nike Classic Cortez Nylon Prm Casual Shoes Blue White Australia , a local radio station here, on Monday that although the FA president had come to see him concerning CAF's proposal, Ghana would not host the tournament.


"We have indicated to him that from the representation that we have received from the people in the health sector, it doesn't look like Ghana is in the position to accept hosting the tournament and I think he has since conveyed this message to CAF," the minister disclosed.


President John Dramani Mahama, who was on an official visit to Britain when the story broke Men's Kendrick Lamar x Nike Cortez Gym Red White Australia , insisted that he had not received any briefing on the issue and "cabinet has not taken any decision to host the tournament".


Morocco, which had won the bid to host the tournament early next year, has finally informed CAF about its inability to host the tournament because of the Ebola outbreak.


The North African powerhouse had sought to get the tournament re-scheduled till the current mass outbreak of EVD in West Africa was brought under control, but the continent's football governing body turned down that request.
