　　近年来，中国政府倡导国内旅游，推行“假日经济”政策，经公民每年3次为期一周的长假，让他们将更多储蓄用于旅游、购物和外出就餐。2004年，五一节的总旅游消费达390亿人民币。目前旅游业收占国内生产总值的2.3%。预计到2013年，旅游收将每年增长10%，并创造4，000万个就业机会。

　　中国在公路、火车站和机场方面投资巨大。新航线和公交公司不断涌现，竞争降低了旅游成本。京沪间单程机票售价为850-900元人民币，有时还会更低。一些航线开展网上售票服务，方便人们购票。更多私车和汽车租赁中介的出现让数百万人不仅能跟团旅游，还能自己开车出游。[247]

　　In recent years, the Chinese government has encouraged domestic travel and implemented a policy of “holiday economics”, giving its citizens three annual week-long vacations and the opportunity to spend more savings on travel, shopping and eating out. In 2004, total tourist spending during the May Day holidays was 39 billion yuan.

　　Tourism now contributes 2.3 percent of the nation’s gross domestic product (GDP), and revenues are expected to grow by 10 percent annually through to 2013, creating 40 million jobs.

　　China has spent heavily on building roads, railway stations and airports. New airlines and bus companies have emerged, and competition has cut the cost of travel. A one-way air ticket between Shanghai and Beijing costs 850-900 yuan, and cheaper prices are occasionally available. Some airlines have begun online ticketing services, making it even easier to take a holiday. More private cars and the emergence of car rental agencies have allowed millions of people to travel on their own, as well as in tour groups.
