CHINA-SPRING FESTIVAL-TRAVEL RUSH (CN)

Passengers from northwest China's Qinghai Province wait to take the train back home at a railway station in Lhasa, southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region, Jan. 21, 2019. Hundreds of millions of Chinese return to their hometowns every year for the Lunar New Year, or Spring Festival, family reunions, thus forming the Spring Festival travel rush. The Spring Festival will begin on Feb. 5 this year. The 40-day 2019 Spring Festival travel rush started on Jan. 21, with 3 billion trips expected to be made. (Xinhua/Chogo)
