China International Machine Tool & Tools Exhibition is the third largest international exhibition for traders and manufacturers held in the city of Beijing. The capital of China has been the host of this international exhibition once every two years ever since 1992. The China International Machine Tool & Tool Exhibition (CIMES) has become an important part of international trade and domestic manufacturing. Up until the 14th session in 2018, 32 countries have participated in CIMES to introduce their new advancements, making more room for further developments as well as boosting their income during the exhibition.
China is currently the largest machine tool market and producer, offering a large variety of items in all quality levels for the consumers. The China National Machinery Industry Corporation has hosted this fair to boost business opportunities on a global scale as well as create a competitive environment inside China. The number of participants increases each exhibition, which is why it is expected to keep the increase to 1500 participants in 2020. The 2018 fair had brought 1200 participants from 32 countries and regions. These previous reports of an increase in numbers of participants and their media coverage are good reasons to believe that the 15th session will also go as planned.

Accommodations Near the CIMES
The CIMES will be held at the Beijing New China International Exhibition Center therefore, it is best to know some nearby hotels which are close to the site of the fair. The closest place to stay will be the Crowne Plaza Beijing International Airport, which is only a 10-minute walk to the destination. The second closest place is the GreenTree Inn Beijing Capital Airport New International Exhibition Center Express Hotel to minimize distance. Other than these two, Ibis Style Beijing Capital Airport hotel is the third recommendation in terms of being close to the exhibition.
There are of course many other places to stay but are further away. They do offer their own advantages, but booking a hotel near the CIMES means you may get a chance to reside near the leaders and owners of big enterprises and manufacturers. This kind of booking means that you may get a better chance of meeting them to talk about your business further, even outside the Exhibition Center.
As soon as you apply and plan to go for the fair, be sure to look for appropriate accommodations and plan your visit carefully. Should you require any assistance for your visit, check our tour packages here at Tripways.com or ask us for advice about the exhibition.
