Top Places to Visit in Helsinki

Today Macau hosted the 43rd edition of the Macau Marathon. Like many major events, roads were closed, people rerouted and the city buzzing with people. We headed out for lunch and what would normally take me 5-10 minutes took me 40 minutes. We we diverted, blocked and basically had to circle the area to get to our destination. Living in a small country, traffic is not normally a problem and something I am not used to anymore. But I understood, the race was over, people going home and cleaning underway. What surprised me was the honking, the impatience, the aggressive driving and intolerance was unbelievable. We want the benefits of a event we have to become an event city. If we want to be a destination that attracts “mega” events we are going to have to change the way we are. Even with the best planning and logistics you will have congestion and a bit of inconvenience but you have to consider the big picture: 🇲🇴The economic impact 🇲🇴The revenue generated 🇲🇴The job creation 🇲🇴The tourism 🇲🇴The induced tourism I attended a talk on Friday last week and in a presentation by Darren Burden and he mentioned that Hong Kong 🇭🇰 will attract over 800 000 visitors attending "Mega Events” in the first half of 2025. You have #Rugby7’s #ColdPlay and many more. The region is ramping up. We have to do so much more to be competitive not just as a destination but as a citizens of a "Events City” 👏Congratulations to all those that completed the Macau Marathon today. Great achievement. #beyondevents #megaevents #HongKong #Macau #GBA #eventmindsets #goingbig

Event planning thrives on preparation, but true success hinges on adaptability and agility. Just days before our recent outdoor teambuilding program at Qiandao Lake, heavy rain triggered a mudslide that blocked our planned route to a key village visit. While cities like Beijing or Shanghai swiftly handle such issues, our small county faced a prolonged road closure. Months of meticulous planning were suddenly upended. Booklets were printed, activities were designed, and expectations were set. Yet, instead of dwelling on setbacks, our team—led by Daizy Dai, Jely huang, and Lucy Liu —swiftly pivoted. We reevaluated our options, shifting to alternative villages and rearranging logistics on the fly. Activities like livestreaming and filmmaking, which showcased local specialties (the area is renowned for its role in the birth of livestreaming), were adapted to indoor settings, receiving enthusiastic feedback. This experience reminded us: never underestimate the weather, but equally, never underestimate our ability to innovate and deliver exceptional experiences, rain or shine. #TeamBuilding #Livestreaming #WildChina #MICE #TravelPlanning

Last week, as a local resident of Shanghai, I took my international friends on a tour around the city. I noticed that, following the pandemic, Shanghai has begun bustling with activity once again. Shanghai has not only welcomed a large number of Chinese tourists from across the nation but has also seen an influx of international visitors from around the globe. Shanghai's rapid recovery in tourism can be attributed to several key factors. Firstly, as China's financial hub and a forefront of the country's international image, Shanghai has made significant efforts in hosting international visitors. Its status not only enhances its appeal as a must-visit destination but also positions it as a city that's quick to adopt and implement measures designed to welcome tourists back safely and efficiently post-pandemic. The city's infrastructure, from world-class airports to extensive public transportation networks, coupled with a commitment to maintaining high standards of hospitality, plays a crucial role in its swift rebound in the tourism sector. Additionally, Shanghai's diverse cultural attractions, from historical sites to modern architectural marvels, continue to draw visitors, further supported by targeted marketing campaigns aimed at both domestic and international travelers. Finally, it's essential to acknowledge the significant contributions of the Shanghai government towards tourism destination marketing and public relations. Their dedicated efforts have been instrumental in enhancing the city's appeal to both domestic and international visitors. #Shanghaitourism #Chinainboundtourism #ChinaTravel #ShanghaiTravel #China #Shanghai #Tourism #ChinaCulture
