You can submit your comments on what you think about the city – your comment might be able to help the local authorities improve the city as a tourist destination.

Imagine the huge latest information that tourists can get from the internet thousands of miles away. No matter how much you spend on attracting foreign tourists to your country, the campaign might not reach some individuals. But with OurCity, a foreigner might just be able to find your city from the cyberspace and plan his/her next visit.
