If you're like us, staying close to chinese travel trends, especially during holidays, you may have noticed the term () from last year, especially in rural or rural areas, where traveling to unexpected destinations in provincial or rural areas.


However, these new destinations also have potential, such as local delicacies, sights, or traditional architecture that can attract young visitors.


Although "reverse travel" remains a hit, a new trend has dethroned it this may day in china: holiday stacking, or "bridging" holidays.


Several "pain points" have been generated by recent holidays, including the chinese new year (cny), tomb-sweeping day (qingming), and the forthcoming may day holiday (1 to 5 may) have all spurred several "pain points" from young professionals.

In a dt business article, holiday stacking can solve both issues by getting your holiday off or end later to maximize travel while others are not able to and avoid the compensatory workday.


“reverse travel” ranks number two in the top ten percent, followed by “citywalk” urban exploration (43.3%), “interest holiday” such as concerts, conventions, surfing, and hiking (39.8%), and “city outskirts” travel (36.0%) are among the top holiday trends.
