During the Chinese New Year holiday, Changzhou’s culture and tourism market remained strong and orderly, ranking among the country’s most popular destinations.

Trip.com data showed that Changzhou ranked first in Jiangsu province in per capita spending on attraction tickets and second in hotel spending per room night during the nine-day holiday. Fliggy reported that both visitor numbers and tourism consumption in the city grew faster than provincial and national averages, while China Dinosaur Park was the most popular scenic spot in the province. Tuniu data indicated that 80 percent of holiday visitors came from outside Jiangsu province, and high-speed rail trips to Changzhou rose more than 50 percent year on year.

The city rolled out a range of festive events blending traditional culture with modern attractions. Qingguo Lane was lit with thousands of lanterns, the 19th Plum Blossom Festival at Tianning Scenic Area drew large crowds, and Changzhou Museum staged Xiju opera performances alongside a themed costume exhibition. Major attractions such as China Dinosaur Park, Yancheng Chunqiu Amusement Land and Oriental Salt Lake Resort also reported strong visitor numbers.

During the Spring Festival travel rush, Changzhou added 109 passenger train services, expanding links not only to nearby cities including Shanghai and Hangzhou, but also to Beijing, Guangzhou and Xi’an. Improved high-speed rail connectivity helped attract more long-distance visitors, supporting the city’s growing national profile.

Visitors from more than a dozen major cities, including Shanghai, Hangzhou, Beijing and Guangzhou, formed the core of the holiday tourism market, ranging from families visiting theme parks to cultural and leisure travelers.
