Tourists watch as Bruce the ram walks down the runway during the Sheep Shearing & Ram Parade at Paradise Country, an Australian farm experience theme park in Queensland. Australians are well used to seeing busloads of Chinese tourists, piling out at attractions, snapping selfies. In 2019, Australia hosted 1.3 million Chinese tourists, the largest group of foreign visitors. Their sight is so common, the groups tend to go unnoticed. The series follows one tour closely. 16th January 2019. Matthew Abbott for The New York Times.
