As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the Guangxiao Road in Yuexiu District was bustling with people on the evening of September 24th. This year, there were more lantern stalls than ever before, ranging from fixed storefronts to mobile bicycle vendors, and even individuals setting up impromptu stalls. Guangxiao Road has transformed into a unique "Lantern Street" brimming with festive charm.

Both sides of the road were adorned with a dazzling array of lanterns, turning the otherwise serene night into a picturesque scene from a poem. The street was packed with visitors who stopped to admire this magnificent lantern extravaganza. Amidst the crowd, elderly folks engrossed in a game of chess provided an interesting contrast to the lively atmosphere, while numerous photography enthusiasts eagerly snapped pictures to capture the joy of the festival.

People could feel the rich festive atmosphere of Guangzhou, and their eyes were filled with anticipation for the Mid-Autumn Festival and a sense of belonging to traditional culture.
