As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, all eyes are on Shenyang—a city where ancient history meets modern vibes. This year’s star-studded gala, set for September 17, will spotlight the cultural and industrial heartbeat of northeast China’s Liaoning Province.
A City Steeped in History 
With over 2,000 years of history, Shenyang is no stranger to the spotlight. Home to three UNESCO World Heritage sites and 1,500+ cultural landmarks, it’s like stepping into a living museum—but with a skyline that’s straight out of a sci-fi flick.
Industrial Powerhouse Meets Cultural Gem 

Known as one of China’s major industrial hubs, Shenyang balances factories with festivals. Think mooncakes by day, neon-lit cityscapes by night. Don’t miss its iconic Forbidden City sibling—the Shenyang Imperial Palace—which rivals Beijing’s with its Qing Dynasty grandeur.
Why This Matters 
For young travelers and culture buffs, Shenyang offers a unique blend of tradition and innovation. Whether you’re into history hikes or TikTok-worthy skyline shots, this festival gala is your golden ticket.
