Beijing has transformed into a floral wonderland ahead of China’s National Day (October 1) and the Mid-Autumn Festival! 🌕 Streets and landmarks are now adorned with dazzling flower arrangements and plant sculptures, blending tradition with modern artistry.
The star attraction? A jaw-dropping 16-meter-tall ‘flower basket’ in Tian’anmen Square – think Alice in Wonderland meets urban Instagram hotspot 📸. Locals and tourists alike are flocking to snap selfies amid chrysanthemums, orchids, and symbolic pomegranate designs representing unity.
This double celebration (National Day marks the founding of modern China, while the Mid-Autumn Festival celebrates family reunions) highlights Beijing’s cultural heartbeat. Pro tip for travelers: Night views of the illuminated displays are *chef’s kiss* 🤌!
