Heilongjiang Provincial Tourism Development Committee has extended an invitation to students who took part in this year's national college entrance exam, or gaokao, to visit scenic spots in the province.
The committee said in an open letter that nearly 100 scenic spots are providing free tickets for the students and two half-price tickets for their family members from July 1 to Oct 7.
Hou Wei, deputy director of the committee, said, "Bring your ID cards and admission cards or letters -- Heilongjiang welcomes you."
"We also welcome you to study at colleges in Heilongjiang. In addition to rich tourism resources, the province has elite universities. You are going to love it after visiting," he added.
