For the upcoming May Day holiday, have you thought about where to go?
The beauty of the mainland is endless, and the most popular cities are even more crowded during the holidays.
No, there are still a few days left before the May Day holiday, and these cities have been crowded...
01 Xi'an
As the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, Xi'an must be on the list!
As many netizens said, Xi'an has never had an off-season, and it is very prosperous no matter when you go, and it is really worthy of being the city that never sleeps in the Tang Dynasty.
Usually the flow of people is very large, and I am afraid that it will be beyond people's imagination.
However, what makes Xi'an a top destination for people from all over the world is that in addition to its beautiful scenery and long history and culture, it also has many famous snacks.
For example, mutton steamed buns, oily noodles, etc., are bound to be the best choice for people who love food.
On the other hand, when the number of people is seriously overloaded, it is not a good thing, whether it is to see the scenery or buy food, it will be a long queue process.
Along with this, the inconvenience of transportation is also a big problem, originally planned to stay for two days, but ended up in traffic jams for a day and a half.
Therefore, many people choose to leave early, which leads to the fact that it has not yet arrived on May Day, and the tourists in Xi'an have reached the level of saturation.
This can't help but make people sigh, this is really May Day in a few days, what kind of grand occasion should Xi'an be?
02Beijing
As the last city in history to establish a capital dynasty, and now the capital city of the mainland, Beijing is also one of the preferred cities of the people.
Whether it is the Forbidden City, the Old Summer Palace, the Great Wall, Universal Studios and other attractions, all of them are popular check-in spots sought after by tourists.
It is not picky about age or gender, and Beijing is a great city for any Chinese.
There is no doubt that, with the exception of holidays, the most ordinary weekdays are cities with exceptional foot traffic.
Judging from the Forbidden City video released by netizens a week ago, everyone can feel the popularity of crowding.
However, this is still nearly half a month away from May Day, and if it really arrives on May Day, I'm afraid that just a distance of one meter will make you block for several minutes.
According to the order data released by the Bureau of Culture and Tourism this year, Beijing is far ahead of the list of popular cities.
03 Shanghai
Behind Beijing, it must be our magic capital Shanghai!
As a combination of magic and charm in the mainland, Shanghai has also witnessed countless "famous scenes" during the peak tourist season.
The Bund, Yu Garden, Disneyland and other areas are all famous attractions in Shanghai, not only for our domestic people, but also for many foreigners.
Moreover, tourists in Shanghai will not be limited to these famous areas, even the old roads that are not well-known will become a must-see place for foreign tourists.
Look at the Bund in Shanghai shared by this netizen, it's just a normal Saturday, and it can be overcrowded to this extent, how can it not be staggering!
04 Nanjing
When it comes to Nanjing, it is inevitable to think of the 300,000 massacre of the Japanese army.
Therefore, the Memorial Hall of the Nanjing Massacre of the Japanese Invasion of China must be a place that every Chinese must set foot in, and every Chinese must keep in mind this painful history.
Of course, Nanjing is not only that, it is also a city full of romance.
Judging from the data that broke out during this year's Qingming Festival, Nanjing is the first in the province, the first in terms of tourist volume, and the first in total consumption.
As people's love for Nanjing soars, its passenger flow will only become more and more outrageous, so some netizens boldly imagine that the number of people in Nanjing during the May Day period may enter the threshold of 10 million.
This can't help but be surprising, Nanjing currently has a total of only a permanent population of more than 9 million, and this is until May Day, I really dare not imagine what kind of spectacular scene it will be.
05 Chengdu
Don't look at the many Chengdu travel guides on the Internet, it seems that the popularity is not so high, and it is quite suitable for vacation.
If you really believe it, then you are really deceived, this is just a reverse propaganda operation in Chengdu.
In fact, in Chengdu, there is no such thing as an uncrowded attraction.
The famous Chengdu Museum, the Giant Panda Base, etc., but all the famous attractions are all overcrowded.
It is no exaggeration to say that the most basic transportation is a big trouble, and if you want to take the subway, you have to queue up for thousands of people first.
You said that I would choose to take a taxi, and then when I opened the ride-hailing applet, I would find that there were hundreds of people in front of the taxi.
No matter how bad it is, some people may say, I can always ride a bicycle.
If that's the case, then you can only say: naïve, naïve, you have to be able to grab a bicycle first.
06 Changsha
For many people, perhaps the most impressive thing in this city is Mango TV, where there are always many A-list stars.
However, in contrast, it is clear that an entertainment star cannot be a famous representative of it.
There are also very famous attractions in this city, such as Orange Island, Wuyi Square, etc., each of which will become the favorite of countless tourists.
Of course, Changsha's nightlife is the key to the main attraction, and it is both cosy and comfortable to enjoy the night view along the river in the evening.
Judging from the sharing of netizens, although it has not yet entered May, the flow of people on the streets of Changsha has begun to be controlled, in order to avoid the possibility of casualties caused by large crowds.
But this can't help but worry, this is not yet the real peak of tourists, can it be controlled if it does?
If the parade is restricted, will it cause a bad travel experience?
There is no hurry, everything will be revealed in five days.
07 Hangzhou
When it comes to Hangzhou, West Lake is bound to be a top attraction that cannot be missed, and even its surroundings are very meaningful.
Lingyin Temple is also very well-known, no matter when you go, you will encounter queues without exception, so if you have friends who want to go, be sure to go in advance.
It is really worthy of the saying, "There is heaven and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou".
For many foreign tourists, Hangzhou is also one of the must-see attractions in China.
Looking at the West Lake shared by this netizen, this upcoming May Day, there are not so many people, it is three or four times the usual.
However, according to the charm of West Lake, this netizen is still too cautious, how can three or four times be enough to be worthy of its identity!
epilogue
Although people know that there will be a lot of people on holidays, they still can't stop us from enjoying the scenery.
Although the large number of people seems scary, from another point of view, the more people are lively, which is not a manifestation of fireworks!
