In the past two days, although the May Day holiday has not officially arrived, the Kunming railway station has been crowded, and the first batch of passengers from outside the province have embarked on the journey in advance, taking the train to the south of the beautiful Caiyun, and experiencing a life called Yunnan.
During this year's May Day holiday, Kunming, Dali, Lijiang, Xishuangbanna and other popular tourist destinations have become popular tourist destinations, and a large number of tourists have come to visit.
Hangzhou traveler: "We children have spring vacation, we came over, yesterday to Kunming, there happened to be college classmates here, by the way to see friends who haven't seen each other for ten years." Go to Lijiang today, play in Lijiang for two days and then go to Dali, see Yulong Snow Mountain, Cangshan, Erhai Lake, and visit the ancient town. ”
On May Day this year, some tourists chose the strategy of "taking 3 days off and 9 days off", that is, taking leave or compensating for holidays from April 28 to 30. For this reason, some travelers have specially formulated a plan for long-term travel in Yunnan during the May Day holiday, playing multiple locations during one holiday, and deeply appreciating the natural scenery, cultural history and ethnic customs of Yunnan.
Northeast passengers: "We will go to Pu'er and then Xishuangbanna, and then go to Dali and Lijiang from Xishuangbanna." There are buildings in Yunnan that we don't have in the northeast, and we still see elephants. ”
It is worth mentioning that cross-border travel has become a highlight of Yunnan Railway during this year's May Day holiday. On the basis of the original China-Laos Railway daily international passenger train from Kunming South to Vientiane, the Kunming Bureau of the National Railway temporarily opened the D85/D86 international passenger train between Xishuangbanna and Luang Prabang on April 30 and May 1.
According to data released by Meituan, as of April 24, the number of cultural tourism bookings (including scenic spots, accommodation, transportation, etc.) during the May Day holiday increased by more than 190% week-on-week. The concentrated release of travel demand on May Day has boosted tourism consumption, and the number of bookings for scenic tickets, hotels and tickets has increased significantly.
Traveler: "The travel guide I found on Xiaohongshu felt that there were a lot of people, a lot of people, and the itinerary was planned a month in advance." ”
In recent years, taste bud travel, travel photography, and the search for niche destinations have continued to be popular, and have become a hot trend in this year's May Day travel and tourism. Traditional long-haul destinations such as Yunnan, Guizhou, and Xinjiang continue to be popular, and they have become popular destinations on May Day with seasonal flower viewing. Taking Kunming, Yunnan Province as an example, the "jacaranda" on the middle road of Jiaochang ushered in the full flowering period, attracting many citizens and tourists to check in the "sea of purple flowers". In addition to Jiaochang Middle Road, such as Chuncheng Road and Baohai Park are all popular places recommended by netizens, which greatly enriches the travel experience of tourists.
