Expanded rail connections expected to boost regional holiday tourism

Trial operations began earlier this month on Xiamen Metro's Line Four and Line Six, which improve connections between Xiamen and Jiaomei in Zhangzhou. The improved regional transportation links come on top of the Fuzhou-Xiamen high-speed railway, which debuted in 2023, putting the two cities within a one-hour travel circle. Regional officials noted last week that the high-speed railway and the Xiamen-Zhangzhou subway link are expected to increase the flow of vacationers among Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Xiamen and Zhangzhou during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays.
