In her speech, Yu Haiying, Counsellor of the Chinese Embassy in Singapore, stated that smart tourism not only allows people to enjoy the pleasure of "viewing the world without leaving home" and "seeing all the flowers of Chang'an on one page", but also stimulates people's richer imagination and longing space. Modern technology has given tourism wings like a tiger. Kong Yuan, Director of the Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre and Tourism Office, introduced that this event is an important part of the 15th "China Tourism Day" series of activities, adding new opportunities and connotations to cultural exchanges and tourism cooperation between China and Singapore.

From immersive virtual reality experiences to multilingual guided tours using artificial intelligence, from digital scenic area management to creative development of cultural and tourism IP, the deep integration of technology and culture brings tourists a more convenient, rich, and personalized travel experience.
