Tourist attractions across China were crowded.
"I finally made the trip that I have dreamed about so long," said tourist Zhang Yi in the Harbin Ice-Snow World in northeast Heilongjiang province, where splendid ice sculptures were on display.
During the holiday, beaches in Sanya, south China"s Hainan province were packed, and the Grand Tang Dynasty Ever Bright City, a commercial pedestrian street in Xi"an, northwest China"s Shaanxi province, had to set restrictions on the number of visitors because of the huge influx of tourists. Besides, the outbound tourism market was also on a fast recovery.
The Ministry of Culture and Tourism estimated that 308 million domestic trips were made in China during this year"s Spring Festival holiday, up 23.1 percent year on year, recovering to 88.6 percent of the 2019 level.
"The demand for catering, accommodation, traveling, tourism and entertainment released fast during the Spring Festival holiday, which led to obvious recovery of the offline retailing, catering and hospitality, and culture and tourism industries. It demonstrated the strong resilience and huge opportunities of the Chinese market," said Yang Guangpu, associate researcher with the Development Research Center of the State Council.
