Original source: 虎嗅网

During the seven-day holiday, China expects 2.13 billion cross-regional trips, 1.7 times the daily average. On the first day, highway charging volume hit a record 28.0469 million kWh, up 60% year-on-year.

Hotels are tightening free services, and in Xinjiang and Qinghai, some toilets have banned water collection.
