Enjoy Yourselves

Enjoy Yourselves

For a long time, Chinese were banned from traveling. They now take advantage of their vacation to visit their country. Theme parks are among the main destinations for domestic tourism which has exploded with the emergence of a growing middle class. Since the early 1990s, theme parks have multiplied across the country, encouraged by the Communist Party's policy of promoting domestic tourism for the economic windfall it brings. Chinese people always visit parks in groups, with colleagues, friends or with family. They have fun, eat, sometimes sleep, but above all photograph themselves. After "Get Rich" by Deng Xiaoping, enjoy yourselves seems to be the new slogan of the Chinese middle class.
