Covid has upended lives around the world. Let’s see how some Chinese are camping to circumvent lockdowns.
Several of our past articles have looked at China from a travel or tourism perspective. Giving you a feel for where and how your customers may spend their free time. Perhaps they even give you more detail around the environment some live in?
More recently we looked at Glamping, and how one British retailer is hoping to cash in on this – see below.
In today’s Friday image gallery, we’ll look at how some people are “living rough” (no glamping for them) in order to comply with China’s isolation or quarantine rules without being shut into 4 walls.
Currently, most people taking this option are returning home, or entering another province from a region which is deemed to be “high Risk.” In other words, they have recently left an area where there is a serious Covid outbreak and policy would require them to self isolate at home for 3 to 5 days apon return.
Rather than stay in their home, some hardy, intrepid souls have decided to extend their holiday and spend their “isolation” camping in one of China’s many road side rest areas or camping grounds. For those with children, this is a sound option!
Our particular gallery today focuses on returnees to the Xinjiang region. But as Covid seems to be slowly placing more of China’s cities into “high Risk” areas maybe this will become a popular and growing trend?
However, with end of August waiting around the corner, and winter not to far off, the shine and enthusiasm for this option may wane somewhat. Especially in China’s far north where max day time winter temps only reach the chilly high of negative 15 to 20. Maybe that will give rise to Iglooing!
