Global Geoparks in China, key national geoparks and related scientific research
institutes, Tianzhushan UNESCO Global Geopark representatives gathered at the
expo to seek the development of China geoparks.

geoscientific education, management and development of geoparks. Tianzhushan
Geoparks representatives actively participated in various agendas and supported
