China

China is home to some of the richest history and tradition in the world. You can view modernity in the large cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong. You can also see monuments and proof of cultural history, like the Great Wall of China and the Silk Road. Finally, there's no shartage of natural wonders, such as the Himalayas (more specifically Mt. Everest) and the Yangtze River.

Default May Holiday Dates 2008

Am trying to discover when the official "golden week" will be for May 2008. As May 1st 2008 is a Thursday will the previous Monday April 28 to Wednesday April 30 be public holidays or will it be the following week?

Smile Re: May Holiday Dates 2008

In 2008, the weekends are placed unfavorably, resulting in a Golden Week, that consists of little more than an isolated public holiday (April 29) and a long weekend (May 3-5) as shown below.
Travel activity is anticipated to peak on May 3 with people leaving the large urban centers and on May 5 in the opposite direction. Click here for more information Japan guide.
Hope this helps.
Take care
