The Top Destination in Beijing is close to the official hotels of Great Wall of China Marathon on May 1st.2024(April 6,2024)

The national holiday in China, which lasted for 3 days from April 4th to April 6th, has come to an end. During this time, a staggering 119 million people in China embarked on trips, marking an impressive 11.5% increase compared to the same holiday period in 2019.

Notably, Beijing welcomed a total of 9.03 million visitors over the course of these three days. Among the numerous scenic areas in the city, the top 10 destinations that attracted the most tourists were as follows:

1) Wangfujing Street
2) Nanluguxiang
3) The Summer Palace
4) Yuyuantan Park
5) Temple of Heaven
6) Beijing Olympic Park
7) Qianmen Street
8) Beijing Blue Bay
9) Beijing Zoo
10) Beihai Park

For those staying at the Mercue Hotel, it is a convenient distance of approximately 3 kilometers to reach either the Zoo or Yuyuantan Park. Similarly, Hotel Nikko New Century Beijing is situated around 1 kilometer away from Beijing Zoo or Yuyuantan Park.

Looking ahead, the next national holiday in China is scheduled from May 1st to May 5th, 2024. Based on our previous experience, we anticipate that the entire country will witness an influx of over 200 million visitors during this period. In Beijing alone, we expect to welcome at least 10 million visitors.
