DALIAN, China/GUANGZHOU -- This year's National Day break in China, beginning Sunday, will last for eight days instead of the usual seven. Yet the number of Chinese cross-border tourists during that period is expected to remain flat for the first time in years, due to a set of travel restrictions.
A survey by The Nikkei found that travel agencies in at least 14 major Chinese cities have been ordered to cap the number of group tours to Japan.
