This year's eight-day National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday in China isn't just about mooncakes and family reunions—it's also a playground for the country's thriving ACGN (Animation, Comic, Game, Novel) fandom! 🎉 While iconic landmarks like the Great Wall and Forbidden City remain packed, a new wave of young travelers is swapping historical sites for anime conventions and gaming expos.
💥 From elaborate cosplay outfits to limited-edition merch hauls, ACGN enthusiasts are turning their passions into travel itineraries. 'It's like Comic-Con meets a festival vibe,' says 22-year-old attendee Li Mei, dressed as her favorite RPG character. 'We're here to geek out, make friends, and celebrate what we love.'
📈 Industry analysts note that ACGN-related events contributed significantly to domestic tourism revenue this year, with major cities like Shanghai and Chengdu hosting sold-out exhibitions. The trend reflects China's booming “digital culture economy,” now valued at over $40 billion USD.
🌐 As Gen Z redefines holiday traditions, one thing's clear: the future of travel is wearing cat-ear headphones and carrying a lightsaber. 🚀
