About the publisher

Founded in 1981, Guangdong Tourism Publishing House has long taken tourism and cultural tourism content as its main publishing focus, while extending into fields such as architecture, history, foreign literature, biography, and essays. Its books in the database show that it publishes scholarly and historical works such as Liang Sicheng's A History of Chinese Architecture and Chen Yuan's Examples of Taboo Names in History, as well as translations of foreign literature including Mishima Yukio's The Temple of the Golden Pavilion and Spring Snow and Chekhov's collected letters. It also offers biographies such as From Emperor to Citizen (latest complete edition), The Complete Biography of Zuo Zongtang, and Slightly Out of Focus: Robert Capa's World War II Memoir. Its author resources span architectural history, historiography, and literary translation, giving its list a character that balances cultural tourism reading with humanities and social science titles. As public information is limited, this summary is based only on the publishing directions reflected in the books in the database.
