Few tourists at the Temple of Heaven as Beijing tightens Covid restrictions

Description

Few tourists can be seen at Beijing's Temple of Heaven for the annual Labour Day holiday as Covid restrictions are tightened. Restaurants across the Chinese capital are temporarily banning dining-in and residents need to clear Covid tests to visit public spaces. The five-day break is typically one of China's busiest travel periods, but the country's worst Covid resurgence since early in the pandemic is keeping people home. IMAGES
