Haohe River scenic area in Nantong, East China's Jiangsu province has recently upgraded its public signs with more foreign languages, local media outlets reported.

The scenic area is undergoing a renovation project, with its on-water sightseeing boat route, half-day travel route, and consulting points being adjusted.

The public signs were accordingly updated with more foreign languages, including English and Japanese.

The multilingual public signs are important for tourists when traveling in the scenic area, which stretches nearly 3.24 square kilometers, officials said.

Guiding signs about the scenic area have also been set up at the Shanghai-Suzhou-Nantong Yangtze River Bridge to offer a better travel experience for tourists.
