春节即将来临，火热的出国旅游市场大战又将打响。今年春节出国旅游的游客人数预计将超过以往任何时候，而许多目的地继续放宽签证要求及通过其他措施吸引中国游客来本地度过春节假期。

1月28日标志着中国农历新年的开始，今年的放假安排使中国人有可能有10天的假期。

While the holiday used to be a period of family reunions and big feasts, many Chinese are now choosing to escape the winter pollution and the vastly overstretched domestic travel infrastructure by taking an outbound trip instead.

虽然春节是阖家团圆和大吃大喝的时候，但如今许多中国人选择前往国外旅游，以躲避冬季的空气污染和过于拥挤的国内游。
