A
Young Chinese customers returned to their hometowns during the Spring Festival holiday this year and also brought their urban spending habits back with them. Instead of staying at home, they chose rooms at local hotels, driving the fast growth of hotel bookings in small towns.
Back to the countryside, into the field
More and more urban residents(居民) choose to go to the countryside during holidays to try their hand at farm work. “The busy life in the city makes us far away from nature. In the fields, I can relax and get close to nature,” said a 30-year-old office worker. For this reason, some farms close to the city hold activities to meet the needs of more urban residents.


The rise of in-home pet care
During long national holidays, in-home pet care has turned into a popular business. Urban workers often leave their pets at home when they go for family reunions(团聚). This business offers both opportunities and challenges. Pet owners can have their pets cared for easily. And caregivers need to be skilled and patient to deal with different pets and problems.
