Because if there is something that Chinese tourists like more than gambling, it is eating Chinese food. In fact, last month, two Nevada congressmen proposed a bill to provide a visa waiver to Hong Kong Chinese.Īnd to thank these Chinese tourists, Las Vegas has given them their just reward – plenty of Chinese restaurants along the strip. Chinese people have long enjoyed gambling: Macau is the most profitable gaming city in the world and the number of Chinese travelers to Las Vegas has risen 30% every year these past through years. When most of Nevada was in a foreclosure crisis, Las Vegas had to look elsewhere for cash and not surprisingly, that elsewhere was China. It’s not an understatement to say that Chinese tourists likely saved Las Vegas from economic oblivion after the meltdown of 2008.
