Staggered travel is more cost-effective

According to the current booking situation, the most popular destinations for domestic travel before the holiday are Hainan, Yunnan, Beijing, Hunan, Guizhou, Ningxia, Hubei, Guangxi, Jiangsu, Chongqing, Gansu, Fujian, Xinjiang, Shanxi, Shaanxi, etc. , Red tourism, flower viewing, scenic spots and other theme routes are the most popular with tourists.
In terms of travel prices, if you want to choose a domestic long-term tour, such as a 4-6 day popular route, the price for departure before the holiday is much cheaper than the May Day holiday.
