China is the currently the fastest growing source of tourism revenue for the entire world, but Britain is missing out due to its complex visa rules.

Chinese tourists are expected to spend the equivalent of more than one and a half billion U.S. dollars in Britain this year, much of it in London.

Gordon Innes is the Chief Executive Officer with London & Partners.

"We're seeing Chinese tourist numbers growing very rapidly every year to the UK. Last year almost 400,000 Chinese coming into the UK came through London."

That sounds like good news for London, except that about three times as many Chinese tourists visit the French capital Paris.
