The Chongchuan district in Nantong, Jiangsu province, offered a diverse range of cultural and tourism activities to enhance visitors' experiences during the seven-day National Day holiday.

Throughout the National Day holiday, the district's library organized events like "Library Magical Night". Starting on Sept 28, the Shen Shou Art Museum held an exhibition of cultural works commemorating the 150th anniversary of Shen Shou's birth. On Sept 30, the highly anticipated naked-eye 3D screen on South Avenue was lit up, showcasing videos of Chongchuan's National Day cultural and tourism activities.

Starting Oct 1, the Haohe River Scenic Area hosted various festive activities such as ancient-style dance performances, guqin (a traditional Chinese musical instrument) recitals, intangible cultural heritage bamboo weaving, and printing activities.

At the Changyin Terrace in the Tangzha Beishi Scenic Area, the cultural center held daily performances featuring musical instrument displays, band performances, and interactive sessions, showcasing intangible cultural heritage. During the National Day holiday, the Jiangdong Peking Opera Troupe presented a full-length performance of the classic Peking Opera "Saving General Yang".

The Langshan Mountain Scenic Area, Nantong Forest Safari Park, Sendi Ice and Snow Park, and Urban Agriculture Park also organized a range of themed activities.

To make it easier for residents to enjoy the holiday and to alleviate traffic congestion in exclusive rural tourism areas, Chongchuan collaborated with Nantong Public Transport Company to add two extra buses during the National Day period.

Furthermore, the Xingfu sub-district coordinated with Xingfu High School and Xingfu Driving School to open parking resources to park staff and the public, providing approximately 260 parking spaces daily from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
