Photos from Xinhua about how people are enjoying, or not, the National Day holiday, also known as a seven-day golden week, where millions upon millions of Chinese tour the country:
Here, a young man jumps over a rail divider between the two ways of traffic around Guanqian Street (观前街) in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province.
See half a million crowd elbow each other to view fireworks on the bank of the Yangtze River in Wuhan, and tourists inching ahead and rubbing shoulders on the Tiananmen Square to “enjoy” a holiday.
