Tripadvisor has had a healthy population of Chinese reviewers in Taiwan and China. Recent years, Tripadvisor decided to merge all its reviews by destination and not by language. China’s counterpart site has a cache of international destination reviews for high income travelers. Lianorg.com reaches Chinese tourists as an inside track. Its red envelope logo is showing up at European tourist destinations and reviews are growing.
