The first super long holiday since the coronavirus epidemic will arrive on October 1. Traditionally seen as tourism's golden week, the holiday has become even more cherished by industry participants who were hard hit during the virus outbreak.
The Altay region in northwestern Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region rebooted tourism after a new round of COVID-19 cases withered in the region's capital city Urumqi in August. A total of 32 A-level scenic spots have exempted ticket fees, including the Kanas Lake scenic area and Koktokay National Geopark, from September 6 to November 10.
The ancient city Xi'an in northwest China's Shaanxi Province has also suspended entrance fees for 53 A-level scenic spots, including the City Wall and the Tang Paradise, an incentive spanning the summer vacation and the National Day holiday.

免费门票带来更多好处
受疫情影响，今年游客数量有所减少，世界旅游业受重创，但我国多地通过减免政策刺激了消费，有利于经济复苏，也让大家得到了实惠。
据《北京日报》报道，青岛12家景区在8月1日实行免票后，1个月接待游客86．48万人，其中崂山接待游客47．4万人次，环比增长73．63％，各景区二次消费显著提升。
With free or reduced-free entry, tourist numbers have increased. Beijing Daily reported that after 12 scenic spots in Qingdao exempted ticket fees in August, 864, 800 visitors were recorded in a month, among whom 474,000 went to the Laoshan Mountain scenic area, an increase by 73.63 percent.
Consumption spending on catering, accommodation, transport and shopping rose. "The number of tourists taking boats increased significantly," said a staffer at Laoshan Mountain scenic area.
温馨提示：免门票开放并不意味着可以随意进入景区，请谨记“无预约不旅游”。
此外，还要配合景区做好入园健康检测、游客分流管控等疫情防控工作哦。
