Is the phenomenon of people traveling together during holidays because of free highways?

Not only because the high-speed is free, but also because everyone is usually busy with work and has no time to travel, so when there are some holidays. Although there are many people traveling, it cannot hinder everyone's pace of travel and the joy and excitement of going out.

Especially in the first half of each year, there are actually many large-scale holidays and the like concentrated in the first half of the year. Especially during the May Day holiday, the whole phenomenon of getting together for travel is intensified, because there is still National Day during the May Day holiday. The National Day holiday is relatively long. For many people, they have actually been looking forward to it for a long time.

Everyone is very curious about those scenic spots that they have never been to, as well as some popular Internet celebrity attractions, even if they are sometimes crowded. There are more people, so the tickets may increase, but it can't hinder everyone's early mood. But in fact, if this kind of tourism gathering phenomenon occurs, it is no longer a matter of one or two years. It is a long-term and historical existence. It has something to do with the better and better development of tourism. In fact, we can see some more realistic problems from more aspects.

1. Normal work pressure is too great.

Because in fact, as everyone’s living conditions are getting better and better, the overall work pressure is also getting bigger and bigger. Because a lot of income has not brought about sustained growth, but some consumer goods have been increasing in price.

So people can only increase their income by working hard and doing side jobs. Therefore, when encountering such a large-scale holiday, they would rather not do work and would go on a trip with friends or family. Because this is not only a kind of physical relaxation for them, but more importantly, it is a kind of mental pleasure.

2; The Golden Week of Tourism promotes the consumption and discounts of commodities.

Many offline physical stores and the like prefer the Golden Week of Tourism, especially for some relatively large tourist attractions. For example, Lijiang and Dali will launch discount promotions on merchandise during the entire Golden Week of Tourism, which is very attractive to many people who have not purchased for a long time. Because you have been working in the company for a long time, or if you have a hard time at home, you will spend a lot of money if you finally go out for a trip.

This kind of stimulation of consumption not only brings a sense of satisfaction to oneself, but more importantly, it actually stimulates local economic growth.

Three; everyone travels to similar destinations.

Because in fact, when everyone travels, they just go to some tourist attractions, see the scenery, and experience the local culture and customs. Eat local food, experience some local characteristics, etc., so everyone goes to the same destination. Especially for some of the more famous ones, such as Xishuangbanna, Dali, Lijiang in Yunnan, Huangshan in Anhui, and Sanya, they are already well-known to everyone as the best tourist attractions.

So everyone’s purpose of traveling is the same, so local hotels have skyrocketed. There is also a trend of overcrowding in commercial pedestrian streets and mountain climbing in some scenic spots.

Four. The free highways have spurred the trend of self-driving travel among many families.

Many families have already implemented this. Each family basically has two cars, so there are many self-driving travel models. It is very common in China. In the past, when people traveled, they had to take flights, high-speed trains or buses, but now they have a car. You can enjoy it while driving, which not only saves travel expenses, but also brings you a new experience. Therefore, the entire self-driving tour not only stimulates some development of the tourism regional industry. At the same time, it also makes many highway intersections particularly congested when traveling to and from.

During such large-scale holidays, many highways across the country are actually free of charge. This saves many families a lot of travel expenses. So under these many factors, no matter it is the traffic pressure on the highway. In terms of accommodation, some pedestrian streets in hotel scenic spots are very crowded with people and cars.
