The square in front of the Civic Center in Futian CBD is a sea of people Tuesday night when a light show was on. Shenzhen’s tourist attractions were packed with travel-hungry visitors during the five-day May Day holiday, which ended yesterday. The holiday, the first such holiday since China optimized its COVID response late last year, saw 274 million domestic trips nationally, bringing in a total tourism revenue of 148 billion yuan (US$21.4 billion), which recovered to 119% and 100.66% of the 2019 level, respectively, as per the ministry of culture and tourism.
