China's National Day falls on October 1, and this year marks the 69th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. In the run-up to the proud occasion, Beijing has been covered with flower decorations and festive plant sculptures. At the iconic Tian'anmen Square, a giant flower basket is attracting many tourists. During the National Day holiday, also known as "Golden Week," people enjoy their seven days off, making it China's most special week for tourism and visiting family and friends.
