Flower Power: Spring Spurs Tomb-sweeping Day Travel Boom

With summer just around the corner, Chinese travelers are flocking to parks, mountains, and flower festivals during the tomb-sweeping day holiday. The three-day break, traditionally a time to honor ancestors, has also become a prime occasion for spring outings, with tourism platforms reportingspikes in short-distance travel, nature-themed activities, and flower-viewing tours.

According to a report by travel giant Trip.com, bookings for flower-viewing tours have surged 55% year on year, with seasonal activities like mountain climbing and nature walks also reporting stronger growth. On online travel platform Tongcheng, searches for terms like “spring outing” and “flower viewing” have jumped 46% compared to last year.
