ScotsAlan:

yes we will stay at home,my wife and I will take our baby boy to the zoo for the 1st time.
I hate travel during this time cant deal with so many people
I'm out of here on the 13th for a trip back to the UK & a holiday in Italy with my wife.
I've stayed in GZ over spring festival once, a couple of years ago. It was great, empty metro system & relaxing.
In years past we'd go out of the country, but this year we are staying put.
We're going to Kashgar. Shouldn't be any problem with masses of people as no Han want to go there due to fear and loathing.
And for the locals (90% of the population) it isn't Spring Festival at that time.
Last year we went to Yunnan and all was good until we got to Lijiang. DO NOT GO THERE!
I loved Kashgar but I haven't been there since the 90s. The old town and markets were amazing. The people were very nice there.

My friend has been there many times and she tells us that a good portion of the old town has been ripped down. Something about improving standards. Improving standards with a focus on Chairman Mao I'd suggest.
We'll be staying in a Uyghir place somewhere in what's left of the old town, so that's good.
