美国商务部公布的数据显示,外国访客的旅行和旅游正在对美国经济产生越来越大的影响。

美国商务部6月13日公布的数据显示,外国访客的旅行和旅游正在对美国经济产生越来越大的影响。

2012年,美国的旅行和旅游业可望成为创纪录的一年,到目前为止外国访美游客的支出约为546亿美元,这4个月与2011年同期相比增加了13%。2011年,美国人在国外的花费也达近400亿美元。

商务部主管国际贸易的副部长弗朗西斯科·桑切斯(Francisco Sánchez)说:“本届政府致力于尽一切努力支持旅行和旅游业,确保美国是外国访客的首选目的地。”

加利福尼亚的葡萄酒之乡以其获奖葡萄酒及食品和乡间小路著称,是人们喜爱的旅游目的地。在上图中,一只孔雀正经过停放在纳帕谷(Napa Valley)葡萄园中的一架老旧的推车。

美国旅游业的新数据显示,欧巴马政府发展美国的旅行和旅游业的努力正在产生效果。本届政府于5月份推出了新的旅行和旅游战略(Travel and Tourism Strategy)。

这项国家战略是美国力争到2021年年底每年接待1亿名外国访客的蓝图。

New U.S. Department of Commerce data show that travel and tourism by international visitors are having an increasing impact on the U.S. economy.

Travel and tourism by international visitors are having an increasing impact on the U.S. economy, according to data released June 13 by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

The U.S. travel and tourism industry is on pace for a record-setting year, with international visitors spending an estimated $54.6 billion in 2012 so far, an increase of 13 percent compared to the same four-month period in 2011. Americans also spent nearly $40 billion abroad in 2011.

“This administration is committed to doing everything we can to support the travel and tourism industry by making sure America is the top destination for international visitors,” said Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade Francisco Sánchez.

California’s wine country is a favorite tourist destination, famous for its award-winning wine and food and scenic country roads. In the photo above, a peacock makes its way past an old cart sitting next to vineyards in the Napa Valley.

The new U.S. tourism data suggest the Obama administration’s efforts to increase travel and tourism in the United States are having an effect. The administration rolled out its new Travel and Tourism Strategy in May.

The national strategy is a blueprint for the United States to welcome 100 million international visitors each year by the end of 2021.
