As China’s Dragon Boat Festival, Children’s Day coincide, family tourism booms

When China's Dragon Boat Festival and Children’s Day landed on the same weekend, families seized the chance for quick getaways. Travel bookings—especially for kid-friendly spots like campsites and theme parks—jumped 23% compared to last year, with over a third of trips booked by parents and kids. Hotels catering to families also saw a spike in searches, showing how these overlapping holidays turned into a mini tourism boom.
