They're also particularly pleasant in early spring.

Five-day packages to Sanya－the most popular destination－dropped from 10,000-20,000 yuan to just over 2,000.

Five days in Guangxi's Weizhou Island from Shanghai costs 1,500 yuan, while six-day trips to Yunnan from Shanghai can be booked for 2,500 yuan.

Skiers can find routes to Jilin province's Changbai Mountains for a little more than 2,000 yuan.
