Storyline


Under a brilliant full moon, crowds of visitors gathered along the Qiantang River in Yanguan Town, east China's Zhejiang Province on Monday night, awaiting the nocturnal tidal bore under the moonlight as a cherished Mid-Autumn Festival tradition.

As the onlookers waited, bathed in the bright mid-autumn moonlight, the ancient town of Yanguan revealed its charm under the mid-autumn moonlight. Some climbed the Zhan'ao Pagoda for a panoramic night view, while others strolled with family along the centuries-old dam.

What made this year's tide-viewing even more memorable was an unexpected serenade. Musicians from the Jiaxing Dachao Philharmonic Orchestra performed the classic melody "Wishing We Last Forever." With the river breeze, the bright moon, and the approaching tide, the scene became a romantic backdrop for couples and families alike.

An additional touch to the atmosphere was a luminous boat parade sailing not far from the shore. Four themed flower boats, illuminated by elaborate lanterns, glided along the water in a storytelling performance that blended traditional craft with modern narratives, captivating audiences, especially the younger ones.

Then came the main event. Before the tide galloped in sight, its distant roar gradually grew louder, arousing anticipation among the crowd. As the tidal bore swept through the viewing area, beams of light projected onto the water, transforming the dark surges into a shimmering, moving painting.

Under the same moon, beside the same river, countless strangers stood together -- watching, waiting, and sharing the timeless beauty of the Qiantang tide on the Mid-Autumn Festival night.
