Keelung Port Branch held a presentation meeting on the 24th at the East Coast passenger Service Center of Keelung Port to share and publish the experience and achievements of stepping on the line to the travel industry and local people. Keelung's secrets and cuisine, as well as the most authentic cultural customs, can attract more operators to engage in business such as itinerary planning, sightseeing guides, car rental, and so on, to meet market demand and drive local tourism output.

Keelung Port Branch said that before arriving at their destination, more than half of the cruise passengers had not yet purchased a shore sightseeing itinerary, but chose to travel independently or by car, and the degree of inquiry for in-depth and exquisite tours was also very high.

Therefore, in conjunction with local groups such as Yudu Walk and Yangming Ocean Culture and Art Museum, local young people personally design itineraries, plan publicity and sales, and lead visitors to taste snacks such as tripod files, Mein mein ice, and pearl milk tea in the Miaokou business area. experience the playing of traditional musical instruments, climb to Chiang Kai-shek Park overlooking the traces of the age sculpture Yudu Keelung, endless stories are worth sharing and savoring.

Keelung Port Branch also focuses on international marketing and, through business exchanges between cruise ports, leads representatives of Incheon, South Korea's largest outbound port, and Zhongcheng Bay Port, Okinawa, the largest connecting point in Asia, to survey scenic spots around Keelung in real time, looking forward to connecting Asian destinations to attract cruise companies to come to layout.

In addition, Keelung image creations and photo sign-in activities are also designed, so that visitors can take Keelung's memory into a necklace and share it with friends and relatives. Yangming Ocean Culture and Art Museum invites professional tour guides to participate in the line-walking itinerary. If it can enhance the visibility of the scenic spots and improve the English signs, it can greatly increase the willingness of tourists to choose to stay in Keelung.

Local tourism is the decisive indicator of cruise tourism in various ports in Asia. although it is not operated by port companies, the long-term development of local tourism is an important indicator of the sustainable development of cruise ports. We also look forward to working with the Keelung municipal government and the Tourism Bureau to create channels to attract tourists to Taiwan and join hands to create cruise tourism output.
