As the Spring Festival approaches, the entire country of China is immersed in a lively and festive atmosphere, with cultural and tourism consumption taking center stage.

According to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism on Friday, China will continue to promote holiday cultural and tourism consumption through the holiday season running from January to February. Various support organizations will roll out a range of promotional measures to boost consumption vitality during the holiday season.

Beijing, in particular, will host nearly 10,000 cultural activities during the Spring Festival. Visitors can enjoy miscellaneous traditional events, including temple fairs, lantern displays, and art performances, as well as innovative experiences such as ice and snow sports, audiovisual experiences and modern industrial tours.
