hong kong on labour day

Hi there! I will be touring hong kong for 4 days. However, my tour date includes May 1. I%26#39;m a little worried that it%26#39;s not a good time for visit. What do you think, will there be a lot of tourists on that day? Will the shops be closed? Is it a good time to go to disneyland?





thanks a lot.

Yes, there will be more tourists (mostly mainlanders) coming during ';golden week';. But this being Hong Kong it will be just as crowded no matter what. You should avoid disney on May-1 or that weekend, if your schedule can accommodate.



Shops will be open... it%26#39;s another good day to make money ;)

does that mean the hotels will be fully booked?

Can%26#39;t say for sure, as you can always find something if you%26#39;re willing to pay for it. But availability is going to be tight and there%26#39;s not much time left, so you%26#39;d better start looking.




Glacerfled, Labour Day Golden Week have just became a thing of past. Maybe, just maybe, there will still be a surge in mainland tourists.



Everything else will be the same as a Sunday.




really, 5x24 ? So, there really is no need to worry?




I thought that most HK people will be going to China on that weekend as people from mainland will go to HK.





Can someone assess the crowds in Victoria Peak, Tram, Disney, Ocean Parks, Malls, etc? I%26#39;ll be there on that weekend.





Thanks.




I agree May 1 is a thing of the past (the so-called Golden Week!)





In fact, I thought May 1 has been abolished as a public holiday... or was it October 1... one of these are going to be no longer holiday anymore in China. (Anyone can verify this?)





May 1- will be NO more crowded than Christmas, CNY, Easter... other holidays. Should be less crowded,because it%26#39;s not holiday for tourists of other countries... just China. Most tourists from China choose other destinations to go to, HK is no longer their top priority.




Boy, I%26#39;m so not on top of the news...



So, there won%26#39;t be ANY days off in China for labour day, even for that one day?




I can confirm that the original 3 day (+weekend) Gloden Week is no more - instead we get 1 day for Labour Day + one day for Ching Ming + one day for Dragon Boat races.





However my univesisty %26amp; no doubt other businesses has decided to take the Friday holiday and work Sunday this year (TIC)
