Importance The article reviews economic relations and processes underlying the cooperation between China and Russia in the field of tourism.
Objectives The aim of the study is to explore problems and prospects for the Russia-China cooperation development in tourism.
Methods We used general scientific methods to review academic literature, statistics, reports of marketing agencies and to identify trends, problems and prospects for Russia-China cooperation development in the sphere of tourism.
Results The paper analyzes the state of international tourism between Russia and China, defines stages, trends and tasks of the Russian-Chinese cooperation in tourism. The comparative analysis of tourism markets in Russia and China considered the preconditions for the growth of tourist flow from China to Russia.
Conclusions and Relevance Russia and China are countries with huge tourism potential and opportunities for mutual exchange. However, at present, the share of Russia in the global tourism market is extremely low, while China is a leader and major supplier of tourists to Russia. The key determinants of Chinese people's trips to Russia are geographical and historical conditions, a favorable political situation, strong economy of China, the growing prosperity of the population, streamlined visa application process, marketing activities of Russian organizations.
