Information from the regional statistics bureau said that Tibetearned a record 1.01 billion yuan (about US$122.55 million)from tourism from January to November, up 6.5 per cent.

Overseas tourists made up 49,845, down by 61.6 percent, while domestic tourists totaled 866,100, a rise of 21 per cent.

The rise of tourism service revenue was attributed to the increasing number of domestic tourists to this plateau region and the fact that domestic tourists stayed longer and spent more moneyduring their stay in Tibet.

A sample survey shows that the domestic tourists spent 542.5 yuan per person each day this year, 96.5 yuan more than the comparable figure for 2002.
