LONDON —

A child lowers his mask to enjoy an ice cream as he climbs up a stretch of the Badaling Great Wall of China on the outskirts of Beijing during the “Golden Week” national holiday. AP Data from Alibaba showed that food takeaway orders near top travel destinations quadrupled, and rental services for cameras, power banks and cars grew 120 percent, 140 percent and 160 percent, respectively, compared with the Labour Day holiday, which is another weeklong national holiday in May to celebrate the International Workers’ Day.Ant Financial’s mobile and online payment platform Alipay said spending in tourist destinations jumped 316 percent in the holiday period.

In Beijing, some 13.79 million travelers visited 223 government-monitored tourist destinations, such as the Forbidden City, Mao Zedong Memorial Hall and the Great Wall. The tallies were only 0.03 percent less than last year’s numbers.
