National Day
October 1, 2007 marks the 58th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

China's "Golden Week" holidays include the Spring Festival, the May Day holiday and the National Day holiday starting in September 1999, when the State Council decided to introduce the three so-called "golden weeks" to help stimulate domestic consumption and lessen the impact of the Asian financial crisis by spurring development of the tourism industry.
