Tens of thousands of visitors were stranded on a mountain in central China’s Henan province on the second day of Golden Week holiday, after the site failed to provide enough shuttle buses to accommodate more people.

    They merely count tickets and people passing by through area's. For example to go from one province to the next, you might have to take several trains, busses and through many checkpoints which are all counted as trips by a person. So a single person can even be considered to have been on over dozens of trips during the golden week.

    这里的出行主要是以乘坐公共交通来记录的,正常出行的话,一个人来回会被记录两次,如果他前往多个地区(乘坐多次公共交通)就会被记录多次,所以你看到这个数字很多(当然也存在自己驾车等无法被准确记录的人),实际上中国出行的人数肯定不到人口的十分之一,因为还有很多人需要工作(比如酒店或者餐馆、旅游行业),且有很多人在所在城市休假

    In China "climbing" a famous mountain means riding up on a bus or climbing up a huge staircase. There is little to no actual hiking or climbing involved. Too many people...means you cant have natural hiking trails. I think a lot of Chinese actually enjoy moving in thick crowds... For the rest who actually want to enjoy nature...dont ever travel out during a Chiese holiday. Even avoid nearny tourist countries like Thailand during the Chinese holidays
