"We've had the Chinese ambassador here and he's interested in taking one of our exhibitions over there. So there's lots of exciting stuff. This is part and parcel of a whole slew of things," he said.
While the Chinese had tended to stay with major tourism centres, that was changing.
"What they haven't seen in terms of big cities probably isn't worth seeing. What they love, actually, is the uncrowded, peaceful places and we can offer plenty of that. That's the feedback I've been getting.
"The fact they can walk by themselves on the beach is something unique for most of them and it's exciting."
The page features Wanganui's key attractions and establishes the district and city as home to some of New Zealand's most fascinating history and arts.
Ms Cheyne said the Chinese were often interested in things that were rare or "firsts".
"For this reason we've mentioned our early sporting history such as having New Zealand's first jockey club and first golf club, as well as our unique heritage attractions, the PS Waimarie, Durie Elevator and Whanganui Regional Museum".
The page also mentions an unusual Wanganui connection to China - the Nankeen night heron. This is a rare bird found only in this country along the Whanganui River.
MS Cheyne said Chinese visitors usually arrived in tour groups and stayed for only five to seven days, so did not always include the regions in their itinerary: "However, recent industry statistics show that NZ is seeing more independent travel by Chinese visitors and these types of travellers are more likely to venture out to region attractions and activities."
