A recent report by online travel platform Trip.com Group revealed that the outbound search index for the 2025 Spring Festival has surged by 51 percent. A threefold increase was also recorded in travel bookings to China by foreign tourists compared to the same period last year.
The flourishing "two-way travel" trend between Chinese and foreign tourists is driven by favorable policies. Over the past year, China has expanded its visa-free "circle of friends" to 38 countries, and implemented transit visa-free policies for 54 countries. Chinese tourists can also enjoy visa-free policies from countries such as Singapore and Thailand.
