China News Service, Beijing, October 1 (Xinhua) This year's Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays coincide, and people's demand for travel and family visits is intensively released. Beijing has become one of the country's popular tourist destinations. In addition, the city's major parks and scenic spots have launched more than a hundred colorful cultural and entertainment activities, and the flow of people and vehicles in popular scenic spots is obvious. In order to effectively carry out tourism security work during the National Day holiday, the Beijing police planned in advance and organized systematically, coordinating various police types and local branches to formulate plans based on local conditions, strictly implementing various security measures, and making every effort to ensure that the majority of tourists in Beijing have a happy, safe and comfortable holiday.

Check in advance to eliminate hidden dangers and maintain the bottom line of safety
The Beijing police sorted out the city's key park scenic spots and points in advance, focusing on key areas near water and cliffs, glass planks, narrow trails and other key areas to carry out potential safety hazard investigations, guiding the responsible units to deepen the rectification of hidden dangers, strengthen civil defense, physical defense and technical defense measures to strictly prevent the occurrence of various safety accidents.
For large-scale tourist facilities, passenger ropeways and other equipment in popular areas such as the Badaling Great Wall and Beijing Universal Resort, the police, together with relevant administrative departments, urged operating units to strengthen daily management and regular inspections, promote early detection and early disposal of potential safety hazards, and effectively nip various risks in the bud.
Strictly crack down on travel-related crimes and purify the tourism market environment
The Beijing police have always maintained a "zero tolerance" high-pressure attitude towards travel-related crimes. In response to the problem of "scalper" ticket scalping, we adhere to the working idea of "attack the source, end the base, and break the chain", and severely crack down on illegal and criminal activities such as using software to illegally grab tickets, make bulk reservations, and solicit customers. In response to possible problems such as illegal "one-day tours" and forced transactions, the police teamed up with market supervision, transportation, urban management, cultural law enforcement and other departments to carry out joint law enforcement, and vigorously cracked down on illegal tourist soliciting, "black tour guides", "black photography" and unlicensed tour operators and other tourism-related chaos, and made every effort to maintain good order in the tourism market.

Take multiple measures to provide precise guidance and maintain order in the scenic area
During the holidays, more than 150 National Day themed activities will be held in 65 parks and scenic spots in Beijing. The Beijing police have made it an important task to prepare for large passenger flows and strictly prevent crowding and stampedes. At points with dense passenger flow, measures such as diversion and diversion will be adopted based on the actual passenger flow; During peak traffic hours, we will strengthen the dynamic monitoring and judgment of overall and local passenger flow, adopt tidal opening of entrance channels, guide the park to implement one-way traffic in key parts, and dynamic diversion of key circulation lines to scientifically balance passenger flow, improve traffic efficiency, and ensure safe and stable tourism order.
Beijing police remind tourists: first, choose a regular travel agency to sign up, choose tour guide services through regular channels, be wary of unreasonable low-price travel traps, and consciously resist the behavior of "scalpers".
The second is to raise anti-fraud awareness during the tour. Do not trust unknown calls, do not click on unknown links, do not disclose personal information, and verify transfers and remittances. If you encounter telecommunications network fraud, please call the police in time.
Third, if you encounter queues or concentrated crowds, please follow the instructions of the on-site police and staff, pass in an orderly manner, and ensure safety.
