Beijing Issues Holiday Travel Consumption Advisory

On Sept 22, the Beijing Municipal Culture and Tourism Bureau issued a Mid-Autumn and National Day holiday travel consumption advisory, recommending off-peak travel, monitoring scenic area visitor flows, and purchasing tickets for Temple of Heaven, Summer Palace and Badaling Great Wall via the 'Jingtong' mini-program. It also requires verifying operator qualifications before joining tours, warning against unlicensed entities organizing tours under the guise of 'conference services' or 'travel consulting', signing written contracts, and avoiding induced optional purchases. For outbound travel, travelers should check destination safety advisories and avoid high-risk countries and regions.
