According to Hong Kong media, the total number of trips for all purposes from Hong Kong to mainland China last year was 53 million, a return to the pre-pandemic level.
A poll conducted last summer by the Chinese University of Hong Kong showed that 62.9% of respondents said they were “not interested in politics,” 7.4 percentage points up from the previous year. The numbers suggest that Hong Kongers are becoming increasingly politically disengaged following the 2020 implementation of the national security law, which aimed at cracking down on anti-government activities.
The current tourism trend is driven mainly by middle-aged and older people who viewed the 2019 anti-government protests negatively. Nevertheless, younger generations have also started enjoying weekends in mainland China. A 27-year-old company employee said: “There are more places to enjoy than in Hong Kong. There used to be this hostility toward China, but times have changed.”
