Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday sent a message to the 14th China-U.S. Tourism Leadership Summit held in Xi'an, northwest China's Shaanxi Province.  

In his message, Xi noted that this year marks the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States.

"The foundation of China-U.S. relations was laid by the people, the door of China-U.S. relations was opened by the people, the stories of China-U.S. relations are written by the people and the future of China-U.S. relations will also be created by the two peoples," said Xi.

Stressing tourism is an important bridge for the people of China and the U.S. to interact and know each other, the Chinese president expressed warm welcome for U.S. tourists to travel to China to gain first-hand experience of China.

Xi voiced the hope that people from all walks of life in the two countries would take the summit as an opportunity to deepen exchanges and build consensus.

He also called for using tourism cooperation to promote people-to-people exchanges, continue friendship between China and the U.S., and help translate the San Francisco vision into reality.
