October 1st is celebrated as National Day in China, marking the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949. This day is a significant public holiday, observed with various festivities, including a ceremonial flag-raising at Tiananmen Square, military parades, fireworks, and cultural performances.

In 2024, the National Day holiday will extend from October 1 to October 7, creating a week-long break known as Golden Week. This period is characterized by increased travel as many Chinese citizens take the opportunity to visit family or travel domestically. The holiday is particularly notable for its impact on tourism, as it is one of the busiest travel times of the year in China, leading to crowded transportation systems and popular tourist destinations

The Golden Week not only serves as a time for celebration but also significantly boosts the domestic tourism industry, with many attractions offering discounts and special events during this period

Here are some of the most popular cultural events and attractions during China's National Day celebrations:

Flag-Raising Ceremony at Tiananmen Square

The 6 a.m. flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square in Beijing is a key event. It features a ceremonial march by the flag guards and is widely televised. The ceremony is open to the public and attracts large crowds.

Military Parades

On select years, a grand military parade showcases the People's Liberation Army and various military displays. The last major parade was in 2019 for the 70th anniversary of the People's Republic of China.

Fireworks Displays
