The government is considering increasing the number of annual holidays and including some traditional festivals, such as Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, among them.
Now there are 3 Golden Weeks for each year. May Day, National Day and Spring Festival. The purpose of Golden Week is to boost domestic consumption.
Most people travel in these three Golden Week. However, complaints about overcrowding, poor service, a scarcity of hotel rooms and damage to scenic spots, especially historic sites, have spurred debates about the merit of Golden Week holidays.
Meanwhile, many people appeal to pay more attention on Chinese traditional culture. One important thing we can do is, assign holiday for Chinese traditional festivals. And the fact is, in recent years, Chinese attach importance to traditional festivals more and more. Many activities are held to celebrate these festivals. And everyone is eager to go back home even they are in the office.
Another change is, the holiday of Spring Festival is also changed, the holiday now starts from Spring Festival’s Eve. Thus people will have enough time to prepare the dinner on the Eve.
