National Day is one of the most anticipated holidays for people every year. This year’s National Day holiday spans 4 days, including a flexible Monday off, from October 7 to October 10. However, 4 days may not be enough for those wanting to travel abroad, and since October 4 is also the Mid-Autumn Festival, you could apply for leave on the 5th and 6th to get a total of 7 consecutive days off; alternatively, you could also take the 11th, 12th, and 13th off, giving you a full 12-day break.
