It's estimated that Chinese tourists could be worth more than a billion and a half dollars a year to the UK by 2020. And although London is their number one destination, other places are also vying for a piece of the action. One city gearing up to be 'China-Ready' is York - the ancient capital of the north of England. Elizabeth Hotson's paid a visit to York - with its medieval minster, its city walls, Viking history and its world-famous Betty's tea room to see how they're trying to attract more Chinese tourists. #York #minster #Bettys #afternoontea #pub
