Chinese Tourist Sites are Packed!
While other countries struggle to fight the deadly coronavirus, China the epicenter of the pandemic is slowly getting back to normal life. Restrictions are being lifted, airports have started operating and various tourist attractions have also opened their gates for public.
Since people could finally step out of their houses after nearly two months of quarantine, the Huangshan Mountain in East China’s Anhui Province was flooded with visitors over the weekend.

Let them isolate themselves on the mountain for 14 days and then go down. See if they will gather together later.
