The Vladimir-Suzdal Museum-Reserve has become a partner of the China Friendly program, Kultura TV channel reports.
According to the reserve general director Igor Konyshev, tourists who come from China face many difficulties there. Travelers can hardly find information if they do not participate a guided group. There are neither inscriptions in Chinese nor information stands, the museum's head explains. It is hard to understand which route to choose, what building to see.
The China Friendly program aims to solve such problems. The site of the museum is translated into Chinese. Soon souvenirs, booklets and maps of the reserve will be issued in Chinese, Igor Konyshev assures.
Printed products are not the single part of the program. A navigation system will also appear with signs and inscriptions made in Chinese. It is planned to develop a mobile application.
The museum is confident that the work will end by the spring, a high season for tourists. Now the installation of signs on the territory of the Wooden Architecture Museum in Suzdal is begun. Chinese tourists show increased interest to this object.
Gun Jiajia, the Cultural Counselor at the Chinese Embassy in Moscow, expressed the hope that the program would increase the travel services level for Chinese.
