China May Day Holiday Sees 325 Million Domestic Trips and Rising Tourism Spending

During the May Day holiday, domestic trips in China reached 325 million, up 3.6 percent year-on-year, with total tourism spending exceeding 185.49 billion yuan.

China's May Day holiday period ran from May 1st to May 5th. During this time, the nation completed a total of 325 million domestic tourism trips.

This figure represents a 3.6% increase compared to the same period last year.

Total tourism consumption reached 185.49 billion yuan, equivalent to approximately $27.08 billion, showing a year-on-year growth of 2.9%.

This indicates that China's domestic consumption market is still recovering slowly.

However, analysts point out that the consumption growth rate is lower than the growth rate of travel trips, suggesting that per capita spending by tourists remains on the low side.

According to official data, China's economy grew by 5.0% in the first quarter of this year, but consumption remains a weak link in economic recovery.
