An ocean liner course between China and Vietnam was a popular route for Chinese tourists during the just concluded Golden Week holiday.

The course starts from the scenic city of Beihai in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and ends at Vinh Ha Long, a beautiful scenic spot of Vietnam.

The route was approved in 1997 by China's authorities in charge of tourism, public security, foreign affairs and customs. The liner now in operation is a luxury ship built in Spain which can carry 528 passengers.

Ocean liner tour has attracted a large number of tourists for its comfortable and casual style.
