China is gearing up for a massive increase in cross-border travel during this year’s Spring Festival holiday. The National Immigration Administration (NIA) announced that an average of 1.85 million people are expected to enter or leave the country each day—a 9.5% jump from last year’s numbers!
The Spring Festival, also known as Chinese New Year, starts on January 29, with holidays from January 28 to February 4. It’s the biggest festival in China—a time when families reunite, celebrate, and ring in the new year together.
This anticipated travel surge shows just how excited people are to reconnect with loved ones and embrace traditional celebrations. For many, it’s a chance to make up for lost time and create lasting memories during the most important holiday of the year.
