Tiananmen Square Giant Flower Basket Unveiled, All Works to Finish by End of September
On September 22, the main body of the giant Bless the Motherland flower basket was unveiled at Tiananmen Square, featuring roses, peonies, sunflowers and grapes symbolizing prosperity, with Bless the Motherland and Celebrate National Day inscriptions on both sides. The giant flowerbed at the base is expected to appear around September 25, and 10 three-dimensional themed flowerbeds along Chang'an Avenue between Jianguomen and Fuxingmen will be completed by the end of September for National Day.
Impact and considerations
Pre-National Day installations and subsequent crowds in central Beijing may affect movement along Tiananmen and Chang'an Avenue, so those travelling to Beijing in this period should note traffic controls and crowd management.
