Recently, with the "Southern Little Potato" group to travel to Harbin has become popular on the Internet, the way of "exchanging doors" between the north and the south has been recommended by more and more people. The Lunar New Year is getting closer and closer, and during the longest Spring Festival holiday in history, which city will usher in the "good start" of cultural tourism in the Year of the Dragon has become a suspense. This year's Spring Festival tourism focuses on a "north-south visit", and the number of homestays and hotels in many popular tourist cities has soared.
The Spring Festival holiday is popular "north and south"
Mr. Jia, who lives in Beijing, planned to travel to Quanzhou, Fujian Province during the Spring Festival, and he began to book hotel tickets just after New Year's Day.
"We grabbed the last room of a B&B near West Street on January 3, the room price is more than 1,300 yuan per night, and the price of this B&B is usually only about 500 yuan. ”
Mr. Jia said that not only the hotel is in demand, but also the ticket to Quanzhou during the holiday is also relied on, and he also booked a round-trip ticket to Quanzhou in early January, when many "golden time" flights did not have too many tickets left.
"We didn't have a ticket for the return flight the next day, but fortunately we made a decisive decision. ”
It is worth noting that this Spring Festival, Quanzhou is not "a lone show", the reporter searched on the tourism platform and found that not only Quanzhou, but also many cities in Fujian are expected to usher in a large number of tourists this Spring Festival.
Taking Xiamen, a popular destination, as an example, there are not many rooms left in many hotels and B&Bs. Even Ningde Xiapu, which is usually known as a "niche destination", some popular hotels and B&Bs have been fully booked.
In addition to Fujian, some tourist destinations in Sichuan, Guangxi and other places are also popular, and Internet celebrity hotels in Guilin, Beihai and other places are also "hard to find", and prices have soared.
Ctrip's data shows that there is a clear trend of "North and South residents swapping for the New Year". "Sanya, Kunming and other cities that are popular with northern tourists, the Spring Festival holiday travel orders increased by more than 2 times and 6 times year-on-year respectively. The relevant person in charge of Ctrip said.

During the Spring Festival, tourists from Shanghai, Beijing, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Shenyang, Jinan and other places have a particularly strong demand for travel, and there is an obvious trend of "cross-border travel between the north and the south". Specifically, tourists from Shanghai, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Hunan and other places are more inclined to choose Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Northeast China as tourist destinations, while tourists from Beijing, Tianjin, Shandong, Shaanxi and the three eastern provinces show a stronger willingness to travel to Hainan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan and Jiangsu.
Ice and snow tourism and cold travel are heating up in an all-round way
Earlier, Fliggy's "2024 Spring Festival Holiday Travel Vane" showed that "folk tourism", "cultural tourism" and "paradise tourism" have become the most popular travel methods for many families, and the number of holiday travel bookings in non-provincial capital cities such as Quanzhou, Beihai and Luoyang has increased by more than 20 times year-on-year.
In addition, the 2024 Spring Festival Travel Trend Forecast Report released by Tongcheng Travel also announced the top 10 popular destinations for domestic travel during the Spring Festival in 2024.
In terms of travel, "seeing the snow in the north" and "going south to avoid the cold" run through the Spring Festival holiday, among which Harbin has become the most popular domestic tourist destination during the Spring Festival holiday in 2024, and the most popular destinations in the 2nd to 10th domestic travel are: Chongqing, Beijing, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Kunming, Guiyang, Xi'an, Shanghai, and Shenzhen.
According to the analysis of the above report, in addition to the most popular ice and snow tours, hot spring tours are also one of the popular travel themes during the Spring Festival holiday in 2024, with Guangdong, Fujian, and Sichuan being the most popular hot spring tourism destinations.
At present, it is still unclear who will compete to become the "Erbin" of this year's Spring Festival holiday, but the Spring Festival forecast data from multiple OTA platforms shows that the upcoming ultra-long holiday will be the first peak of travel in the Year of the Dragon.
