The beautiful notes slowly flowed between the stone stairs, and the heavenly melody echoed under the moonlight. On Mid Autumn Festival night, with the bright moon in the sky and the gentle autumn wind, music fans from all over the world gather at the landmark building of Ruins of St. Paul's in Macau to enjoy the moving music. As a reserved program of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Mid Autumn Festival Concert "Three Buses of the Moon Night 2024", sponsored by the Cultural Bureau of the Macao Special Administrative Region Government and organized by the Macao Orchestra Co., Ltd., was held on the 17th in the Grand Sanba, playing a series of enduring traditional songs. The newly arranged songs such as "New Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon", "My Neighbor Totoro Under the Moonlight", "Good wishes to you", "Love of a Lifetime", and classic movie music add atmosphere to the Mid Autumn Festival when people and the moon are reunited. Miss Jia, a Mid Autumn Festival tourist from Shenzhen, said that she felt lively and cordial when she saw the lanterns celebrating the Mid Autumn Festival and National Day at the memorial archway of Dasanba. This is my first time in Macau, and I have received high praise. I will be returning customers in the future. To add to the festive atmosphere of National Day and Mid Autumn Festival, the Macau Municipal Services Department has set up holiday lighting at 80 locations throughout Macau with the theme of "Good Home, Full Moon, Welcoming Mid Autumn Festival, People's Peace, Wealth, and Celebrating National Day". The Cultural Bureau has also set up a number of theme activities in cultural relics and scenic spots to let the audience enjoy the happy atmosphere of the whole family. In addition, several tourist attractions in Macau, such as the Lu Family Mansion, the Zheng Family Mansion, and the Oriental Battery, all offer festive and cultural activities. Several exhibitions will also be open as usual during the Mid Autumn Festival, including the "Jijin Yaohua - Exhibition of Fine Bronze Artifacts from the National Museum of China" held at the Macau Museum of Art and the "Ask the Valley - Huang Tingjian Calligraphy Literature Exhibition" held at the Pagoda Art Museum. Sugar and water shops, souvenir shops, Portuguese restaurants... The streets of Guanye are bustling with people, and lanterns are also hung in Jiamo Market. Tourists here taste delicious food, take photos to check in, and turn into the new alley, which is less lively. People sit on benches in twos and threes to rest, and when they look up, they see a bright moon. According to the data of the Public Security Police Department of the Macao Special Administrative Region Government, 342000 passengers entered Macao during the Mid-Autumn Festival from Saturday to Monday, with an average daily number of 114000. The President of the Macau Tourism Industry Council, Hu Jingguang, stated that during the Mid Autumn Festival holiday, room prices remained stable and hotel occupancy rates were impressive, reflecting market confidence and a greater anticipation for the National Day holiday. Radiance shines on the world, and the Haoying family admires it together. Activities such as "Lighting up the Stars: Mid Autumn Moon Appreciation" will be held on the outer embankment of the Macau Science Museum. Children can queue up to learn how to use astronomical telescopes, explore the mysterious veil of the moon, or play and frolic with lanterns in Hanfu, experiencing the atmosphere of "the moon rises on the sea, and we share this moment at the end of the world". Many families also set up small tables and chairs along the long beach embankment, enjoying tea and mooncakes while admiring the moonlight. "The Mid-Autumn Festival in Macao has always retained its traditional characteristics. We also take this opportunity to reunite our families and share the happy atmosphere." Mr. Wang, a resident of Macau, said. (New Society)
