The Hong Kong Tourism Board announced on Monday that 2.89 million visitors came to the city last month, an 18 percent increase from the previous month. The daily average figure of the month is also equivalent to 58 percent of pre-pandemic volume.
The board said most visitors in April came from the Mainland and Southeast Asia.
“With the last weekend of the month preceding the Labour Day Golden Week, number of Mainland visitors showed a remarkable increase. For other markets, with the Easter holidays and the end of Ramadan, visitors from Southeast Asian markets also recorded a relatively large increase,” it said.
