About 2,000 migrant workers ride 1,231 motorcycles home for the Spring Festival on Jan. 30, 2016. More than 400,000 motorcycles are expected to run on the road during this Spring Festival travel rush or Chunhuan. Most of the migrant workers who work in Guangdong and Fujian are from Guangxi, Guizhou and Yunnan. Named the "Motorcycle Army" by the media, the group was first seen in the 1990s in the southern part of China as train tickets were extremely difficult to get during the travel peak. (CNS Photo) |
