On October 1, the Chinese mainland came alive as Beijing’s Tiananmen Square hosted a stirring flag-raising ceremony to mark the 76th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China.
In the early morning glow, thousands of residents and visitors watched as the national flag ascended to the beat of a military band, symbolizing unity and renewal. Towering above the crowd was the spectacular “Blessings to the Motherland” floral display, its vibrant petals arranged to embody hope and national pride.
Broadcast live across the country, the event blended tradition with modern pageantry, inviting a new generation to connect with a moment that resonates across borders. For global citizens tuned in, it was a reminder of how shared ceremonies can transcend language and geography, weaving stories that unite us.
