On the second day of the Chinese New Year, the third day of Spring Festival holiday, we made a summary of the tourist market during the holiday in some counties (cities) and districts as follows:

Gongyi City:

Gongyi received 200,500 tourists and realized a tourist income of RMB 4,167,600, up 552% and 423% year on year, respectively.

On the third day of Spring Festival holiday, visits to relatives and friends as well as family short-distance tours continue to heat up, and tourism market is still booming. Driven by the overwhelming popularity of Yanyue Ancient City and Changshou Mountain in Zhulin Town, the number of tourists and revenue of Grotto Temple and Xuehua Cave of Fuxi Mountain have experienced substantial increases compared with the same period last year.

All scenic areas have launched special folk performances themed on “Blessing Cultural Temple Fair for the New Year”, and prepared distinctive “festival folklore grand events” filled with Spring Festival atmosphere for citizens, especially activities like “Starlight Carnival” and Royal Circus in Changshou Mountain, as well as Datiehua show, driving with a single arm, racecourse, and auto racing show in Yanyue Ancient City, which enjoyed great popularity among tourists and are regarded as highlights of their Spring Festival travels.

To prevent traffic jams alongside scenic spots such as Yanyue Ancient City and Changshou Mountain, coordination has been conducted to arrange more police along S314, National Highway 310 and other road sections. The move was aimed at ensuring smooth and orderly passage on main roads by intensifying control over roads and actively carrying out traffic dispersion.
