Luoyi Ancient City, located in Luoyang, Henan Province, is a popular tourist destination renowned for its historical architecture, cultural heritage performances and bustling souvenir shops. The Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is attracting an influx of visitors from outside the city.

What many may not realize is the deep and unique connection between Luoyang and the Mid-Autumn Festival. As one of China's ancient capitals, Luoyang is steeped in rich cultural traditions. The Mid-Autumn Festival gained prominence during the Tang and Song dynasties, a period when Luoyang was a major political and cultural hub. Over the centuries, with the influence of various dynasties, the city developed a distinctive cultural ambience surrounding the festival.

In terms of local tourism, the holiday has undoubtedly energized Luoyang's thriving night economy. Luoyi Ancient City is just one of many night-time attractions drawing large crowds. As dusk falls, the area comes alive with lights, transforming into a vibrant night park where tourists, often dressed in traditional hanfu, add to the festive atmosphere. This showcases not only the popularity of the traditional clothing but also highlights the growing "hanfu economy."
