Factbox-China’s Lunar New Year travel rush: World’s biggest annual migration
Hundreds of millions of Chinese criss-cross the country during the Lunar New Year holidays each year to reunite with families back in their hometowns or for sight-seeing during an extended festive period, making it the world’s largest annual human migration. The Lunar New Year travel rush, known as Chunyun in Chinese, is often seen as a barometer for China’s economic health and a pressure test for its vast transportation system. This year’s Lunar New Year travel rush kicked off on Tuesday and will last for 40 days, concluding on Feb. 22.
