China's Ministry of Culture and Tourism
on Wednesday stressed the stringent implementation of epidemic control
measures at tourist sites nationwide ahead of the Labor Day holiday
starting on May 1. At a
teleconference, the ministry called on tourist sites to limit the number
of visitors in key areas such as ticket counters, entrances, core
attractions and dining spaces. Tour routes should be optimized to prevent overcrowding at popular spots, said the ministry. Supervision
was advised to ensure tourists' compliance with COVID-19 containment
measures covering transportation, accommodation, catering, shopping and
other sectors. Also on Wednesday, the
Ministry of Education issued a notice requiring schools to keep
anti-epidemic measures in place during the holiday, strengthen health
guidance for outgoing students and staff, and keep track of their health
conditions. China expects to see around 250 million domestic travelers during the upcoming holiday, a majority of whom will be tourists.
