Millions of Chinese have used this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, which fell yesterday, as an opportunity to visit family and loved ones.
This year, the government made the festival a three-day national holiday for the first time.
Railways and buses from Chengdu, Sichuan province, carried 180,000 people to quake-battered cities throughout the province from Saturday, the transport authority said.
