OVERSEAS TRAVEL BAN IN CHINA WILL BE LIFTED AFTER 3 YEARS DURING CHINA’S LONG HOLIDAY

National Day is the founding day of China. Since the founding of China took place in Tiananmen Square on October 1, 1949 and Mao Zedong proclaimed the founding of the People’s Republic of China, this day has been designated as a National Holiday.

In China, it is called “Shi(10) i (1)” and is a week-long public holiday, including October 1 every year.

It used to be a time for families to spend time relaxing together, but in recent years, this holiday has become a tourist season for Chinese people who want to travel domestically and internationally. Before the coronavirus pandemic, Japan welcomed many Chinese tourists every year. National Day 2023 will coincide with the Mid-Autumn Festival on September 29 and the holiday will last longer than usual with 8 consecutive holidays from September 29 to October 6.

The number of people booking trips to Japan is increasing rapidly and National Day in October is expected by many to be a great business opportunity.

There is a strong opinion that Japan remains popular because it has many favorable factors as a tourist destination, such as geographical proximity, Japanese cuisine, and cleanliness. of cities. It will be interesting to see whether more Chinese tourists come to Japan for National Day this year, as the ban on foreign group travel is lifted for the first time in three years following the coronavirus pandemic.
