As travel resumes, a growing wave of independent Chinese tourists is returning to Hong Kong and Macau. From Golden Week to summer holidays, this high-spending audience is actively looking for local dining, wellness, retail, and entertainment experiences.
But here’s a secret most merchants don’t realize:
The key to unlocking foot traffic from Chinese travelers isn’t just on social media — it’s on the Gaode Map.
Gaode Map: More Than Just Navigation
Gaode Map is not just a navigation tool — it’s one of China’s most widely used lifestyle apps, with over 100 million daily active users. For Chinese tourists, Gaode has become the go-to platform to:
- Search for restaurants, hotels, massage and spa services, attractions, and shopping malls;
- Compare reviews, see photos, check crowd levels,and travel time;
- Plan ahead — often before even arriving in Hong Kong or Macau.
Ideal for Hong Kong & Macau Businesses
Unlike traditional ads, Gaode Map targets users with high purchase intent — people who are actively searching for your services in your area, right before they make a decision.
Key Benefits:
- Targeted exposure for high-converting keywords(e.g. “Central Massage”, “Tsim Sha Tsui Dessert”);
- Accurate POI (Point-of-Interest) pages with brand photos, descriptions, menus & location;
- Drive direct actions: one-tap navigation, call, booking, or coupon redemption;
- Suitable for all major travel periods: Labor Day, summer holidays, National Day, and beyond.
