Get ready for some serious traffic jams, folks! 🚗🚗🚗
China's Ministry of Transport is gearing up for a massive movement of people during the upcoming National Day holiday from October 1st to 7th. They estimate around 1.94 billion cross-regional trips will be made during this week-long holiday, which is like the entire population of Latin America hitting the road—twice! 😲
That's a mind-blowing daily average of 277 million trips. To put it into perspective, imagine everyone in Brazil hopping on a bus, train, or car every single day for a week! 🚌🚂🚙
What's even more impressive is that about 80% of these trips, or 1.53 billion, are expected to be self-driving journeys. Looks like China's highways will be buzzing with road trips galore! 🌄🛣️
Whether it's visiting family, exploring scenic spots, or just enjoying the freedom of the open road, the Chinese people are set to make the most of their Golden Week. And honestly, who doesn't love a good road trip? 🎶🚘
If you're planning to travel in China during this time, pack plenty of snacks, queue up your favorite playlist, and brace yourself for an epic adventure! 🍿🎧
Safe travels and happy Golden Week! ✨
