Let your overseas travels during National Day be worry-free with TravelMap

    According to the latest news, the ranking of the top ten most crowded scenic spots during National Day has been released, with Jiuzhaigou ranking first. The joyful yet mixed-with-anxiety National Day holiday has arrived—before people even hit the road, their minds are already congested. This has led more people to opt for overseas travel. According to data published by a Chinese tourism research institution, in 2013, the total number of outbound tourists from China was 94.3 million, and under the tight conditions of this year’s National Day Golden Week, the total number of overseas travelers is certain to set new figures.

    “Last National Day, I traveled to Thailand with my family on a tour package. We spent six days visiting Chiang Mai, Bangkok, Pattaya, and Phuket. The tight schedule felt like we were rushing from one place to another—we didn’t have time to truly experience Thai culture. Next time, I definitely want to go on an independent trip and explore Thailand at my own pace,” said Ms. Zhang, a white-collar worker. This is the real feeling of most outbound tourists today. Many group tours abroad consist of independent travelers put together, and some even include shopping tours. Moreover, the itineraries are extremely tight, often allowing only a few hours to visit famous attractions. The rushed schedule turns high-end overseas travel into a mere formality of “sleeping on the bus, taking photos off the bus.”

    Independent travel and in-depth exploration have become the pursuits of travel enthusiasts. In this context, an easy-to-use and convenient navigation map has become an essential tool for travelers. As the world’s first offline native-language navigation map for mobile phones—TravelMap, after eight years of development and built upon the foundation of high-end in-car GPS navigation, leverages top-tier topological technology and path calculation technology among eight major advantages to deliver a brand-new experience and surprises, making your National Day overseas travels “worry-free from start to finish.”
