Hong Kong hosts various activities to celebrate the National Day

2022-09-30

As the National Day approaches, the festive atmosphere on the streets of Hong Kong has become strong. On both sides of the street, outside the building and in front of the shop, five-star red flags are waving in the wind, and the blessing slogans are particularly striking against the backdrop of "China Red". "Walking in the street, I feel jubilant." Ms. Zheng, who works in the East District of Hong Kong Island, said that she noticed that the National Day layout this year was more colorful than in previous years, and that slogans wishing the motherland were everywhere. On the Empress Statue Square in Central, a giant Ruyi Palace Lantern, 13.08 meters high, was dazzling. The couplets on both sides of the palace lanterns represent the good wishes of Hong Kong people to the motherland. The lion shaped lights placed around the palace lanterns are full of vitality and good momentum. The electronic displays on the body and in the carriages of some public transport vehicles in Hong Kong, as well as many commercial buildings and landmark buildings on both sides of Victoria Harbor, are all flashing with patterns and slogans to celebrate the National Day. The huge slogan "Warmly Celebrate the 73rd Anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China" was displayed on the large LED screens of the Bank of China and other buildings, and some were accompanied by fireworks animation, adding to the festive atmosphere. In the New Territories, the large traditional flower tiles outside the Shatin Rural Affairs Committee office building are colorful, with the words "celebrate the National Day" and "enjoy the peace and prosperity of the country" written on them. This flower card has become a hot spot for National Day photos. Huapai is a large paper-based installation art with a long history in Hong Kong's traditional folk customs, which was included in the first list of intangible cultural heritage by the SAR government. Since Hong Kong's return to the motherland, residents of the New Territories have spontaneously celebrated the National Day with this unique traditional craft of Hong Kong. "Whenever there is a special day of celebration, we will play cards." Mo Jingui, the chairman of Shatin Rural Affairs Committee who grew up in the New Territories, told the reporter that New Territories residents expressed their joy by playing cards, so they could see them every National Day and the anniversary of the return. Hong Kong's National Day activities from all walks of life are colorful and attract many citizens to participate. Jiangsu Provincial Overseas Friendship Association, Hong Kong Jiangsu Association and others held the "Celebration of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China - Jiangsu Hong Kong Famous Artists Exhibition and Youth Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition" in Hong Kong. While welcoming the National Day, they promoted the exchange and integration of Jiangsu and Hong Kong arts, encouraged young people to inherit traditional Chinese culture, and actively engaged in building a better country. "This painting and calligraphy exhibition has increased everyone's sense of national identity." After watching the exhibition, Ms. Li, a Hong Kong citizen, said that young people's paintings were the most attractive to her. Many of them expressed their love for the motherland. Such calligraphy and painting exhibitions should be held more frequently. The "New Momentum of Youth Running Together on National Day", jointly organized by the Hong Kong Youth Association and other youth organizations, was launched a few days ago. Participants must complete the running route planned by the organizer in the form of "online running" from September 25 to October 16. "We hope to take this opportunity to encourage Hong Kong youth to express their best wishes to the country through running." Chen Kairong, chairman of the Hong Kong Youth Association, said that the running route passed through many distinctive National Day attractions, such as Golden Bauhinia Square, so that everyone could feel the warm celebration atmosphere in Hong Kong while running. The Hong Kong Kowloon Federation of Societies recently held a "Music and Fragrant River Concert". Xu Li, the chairman of the Kowloon Federation of Societies, said that she would organize this event on the occasion of the 73rd anniversary of the founding of New China
