Hey there! Have you ever imagined what it’s like when hundreds of millions of people travel all at once? 😲 In China, that’s exactly what happened on the fourth day of the Spring Festival holiday!
Over 304 million journeys were made across the country in just one day! 🇨🇳 That’s almost like every person in the United States taking a trip on the same day!
The Spring Festival, also known as Chinese New Year, is the most important holiday in China. It’s a time when families come together to celebrate and enjoy delicious food, fireworks, and traditions. 🎆🏮
Most people travel by road, with about 288 million road trips made, which is a 6.9% increase from last year. Many families are hitting the road in new energy vehicles (NEVs), like electric cars! 🚗⚡ Thanks to lots of charging stations, it’s easier than ever to travel green.
Train and airplane journeys are popular too! Train trips went up by 5.3%, and air travel increased by 3.6%. With more trains and better services, getting around is a breeze. 🚄✈️
This huge movement of people is known as chunyun, or the Spring Festival travel rush. It’s one of the biggest human migrations in the world! 🌍 Families travel long distances to reunite and spend precious time together.
Can you imagine what it’s like to be part of such a big celebration? Maybe one day you’ll get to experience the excitement of the Spring Festival in China! 🧧🥟
