Beijing Tourism Development Report 2014, a green book on Beijing tourism compiled by the Beijing Tourism Society and published by the Social Sciences Academic Press, was released on June 30. The report pointed out that in recent years, affected by multiple factors, the number of inbound tourism in Beijing has shown a continuous decline, and the decline rate in 2013 has exceeded the national average level, which has affected the realization of the inbound tourism goal of Beijing's "12th Five-Year" tourism plan.

According to the green paper, the number of domestic tourists in Beijing has shown a steady upward trend since 2008, while the gap between the number of foreign tourists and the number of domestic tourists is large, growing slowly and showing a downward trend after 2012. For Beijing, the number of inbound tourists in 2013 was 4.501 million, a year-on-year decrease of 10%, accounting for less than 2% of the total tourist reception in Beijing, and far from the positioning of "world tourist city".

The green paper also pointed out that although the number of inbound tourists and the foreign exchange income from tourism declined year-on-year, from the perspective of quality and efficiency, in 2013, the proportion of foreign exchange income from tourism in Beijing was 4.2 times that of the number of tourists, and the per capita expenditure was 1,065 US dollars, an increase of 3.6%. Inbound tourism is still the most contributing part of Beijing's tourism sector.
