Public Holidays in China |
If you're planning a trip to China, it's worth considering the dates of the
Chinese public holidays.
Peak time for travel in China is around May Day Holiday and National Day, and also the New Year's Day and Spring Festivals. Hotel rooms, flights and public transport are in high demand at these times and so it is wise to avoid visiting China during these periods....
