Travel

Going out for a long journey, specifically referring to a long-distance trip or the first day of such a journey.

Travel refers to going out for a long journey, particularly emphasizing a long-distance trip or the very first day of a journey. In ancient times when transportation was inconvenient and journeys were risky, a long-distance trip was a major event. People would carefully select an auspicious day for travel, avoid directions of ill omens, and pray for a safe and smooth journey with a timely return. Although modern transportation is well-developed, some people still consult traditional travel taboos and auspicious days when planning the departure date for important long journeys (such as moving abroad or relocating).
