CCTV News: April 5th is the second day of the Qingming Festival holiday, and the number of people traveling in the short and medium distances for the purpose of outings and viewing flowers has increased. Railway, bus and other departments in various regions actively organize holiday transportation and help travel during holidays through "high-speed rail + tourism" and "bus + tourism".

Changbai Mountain is one of the most popular scenic spots in Northeast China during the Qingming Festival. In order to fully utilize the "high-speed rail + tourism" model, Changbai Mountain Station organized station staff to become tourism recommendation officers and distributed "playing around Changbai Mountain" tourism strategy to passengers, and promoted preferential policies such as enjoying exclusive discounts in cooperative scenic spots with high-speed rail tickets, attracting more people to choose to travel by high-speed rail.

Qinhuangdao, also a popular tourist destination, held a variety of activities during the Qingming Festival holiday to bring tourists a more interesting and comfortable tourism experience, and to make the number of tourists reach a small peak since 2025. The Beijing Bureau of China Railway has added security inspection channels at the station to facilitate passengers to enter the station quickly, and has added security inspection equipment during concentrated passenger flow to strengthen passenger flow guidance.

Macheng, Hubei is ushering in the season of rhododendrons blooming. In order to facilitate passengers to enjoy flowers, the Wuhan Bureau of the National Railway has added a special flower viewing train and also provides passengers with high-speed rail flower viewing maps.

In Pingtan, Fujian, now it is the peak season for blue light at sea, also known as "blue tears". The Nanchang Bureau of the National Railway has added 12 trains from Fuzhou to Pingtan, Nanchang West to Fuzhou, and Ganzhou to Fuzhou to help tourists encounter this limited romance of "ocean aurora".

In addition, transportation departments in many places have also facilitated the elderly to travel by opening special trains and silver buses. In Yichang, Hubei, the local area has leveraged the advantages of many public transportation points, long lines and aging-friendly vehicles to run customized buses and outings for the elderly, carrying the "silver-haired family" into the outdoors, embracing nature and feeling the beauty. Silver trains in many places have started, running towards poetry and distant places

In the past few days, silver trains have been launched in many places, and passengers are loaded with passengers running towards poetry and distant places.

On April 5, the "Panda Special Train·Shifang" departed from Anjing Station in Sichuan and headed to Jianshui, Yunnan. More than 460 elderly tourists started an 8-day in-depth tour of the South of Colorful Clouds.

This train will pass through Kunming, Dali, Lincang, Jianshui, Hekou and other places along the way. During the itinerary, we will visit the beautiful spring scenery of Wa people's Wengding tribe, Qianmi cliff mural gallery, Bissezhai, and Bada terraces.
