Chinese tourism activity during Golden Week

Overview

Leading up to the Golden Week holiday period, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) projected that approximately 250,000 Chinese tourists would visit the country between September 25 and October 7. Officials anticipated this influx would generate roughly 11.5 billion baht in revenue, driven by increased flight searches and bookings.

Following the holiday period, major Chinese hubs reported high levels of tourism activity. Guangzhou saw 16.05 million tourists and 14.5 billion yuan in cultural tourism consumption. In Hong Kong, approximately 1.41 million visitors arrived from mainland China, a figure that exceeded government estimates and marked the second-highest number for that period in history.
