Hong Kong to welcome 1.29 million mainland Chinese visitors for National Day break
Immigration Department shares estimate as Hong Kong’s No 2 official says authorities to ‘make good preparations’ for ‘golden week’ break
Hong Kong is expected to welcome about 1.29 million mainland Chinese travellers over the National Day “golden week” break, with city authorities planning to step up crowd management and tighten supervision of tour agencies and retail outlets.
On top of the expected influx of about 1.29 million mainland travellers over the break, the Immigration Department said it expected the average daily number of visitor arrivals to surpass last year’s figure by more than 5 per cent.
