One of the three Golden Week holidays will be abolished and several traditional Chinese festivals added to the holiday list, a source with the China National Tourism Administration said yesterday.

The changes have been worked out and are awaiting approval by the National People's Congress, the top legislature, the source said, confirming a report in chinanews.com yesterday.

The report quoted anonymous official sources as saying that the new holiday system will certainly include important traditional festivals, such as the Dragon Boat Festival (or Duanwu Festival) and the Mid-Autumn Festival.
