Hmm reading up on this I can see it really disrupting the norm there.
Quote:
For many workers, Golden Week and Chinese New Year are the only two times that its possible to take extended holidays. As a result, domestic travel skyrockets with locals heading home to see family or go traveling. There are frequent reports of crowded trains and congestion with 350 million traveling on the roads — on the weekend a two-hour trip from Guangzhou to Shenzhen, the closest mainland city to Hong Kong, was taking up to 10 hours.
