People in China are expected to make 100 million trips during the
2021 Dragon Boat Festival holiday, roughly equal to the same period in
2019, China Daily reported Friday. Trip.com, an online travel service provider, said its platform has
seen a surge in tour package reservations ahead of the three-day holiday
starting Saturday. Fang Zexi, an analyst at the group's research center, said that
despite sporadic cases of COVID-19 in some areas, domestic tourism's
growth momentum remains high, which is a result of efficient epidemic
control measures. In terms of destination preferences, short-distance tours have proved
popular for the holiday. According to Lvmama, another online travel
agency, reservations for hotels and resorts near big cities are already
in short supply on its platform. Attractions such as museums and ancient villages are also popular
among tourists, with bookings for tailored tours to ancient villages on
Trip.com up 30 percent compared with the same period in 2019. Enditem
