The city is expecting at least 800,000 mainland tourists during China's five-day Labour Day holiday.
HONG KONG – Hong Kong has pulled out all the stops to welcome at least 800,000 mainland visitors during China’s five-day Labour Day holiday, but stormy weather and a weak yuan threaten to throw a wrench into the works.
Some restaurateurs are concerned that the rainy weather would affect their business during the crucial holiday period, local broadcaster TVB reported. Some retailers are also worried that the weakening Chinese currency could inhibit mainland tourists’ spending. With these expectations in mind, the authorities have extended the operating hours of public transport systems across the city. They have also ramped up cross-border bus services by some 40 per cent, and added 540 train trips along seven rail lines on three days during the Golden Week.
Some 16,000 Hong Kong tourism vouchers worth a combined HK$3.2 million were distributed to residents in the Chinese cities of Xi’an in Shaanxi province and Qingdao in Shandong province.
