UAE: Burj Khalifa puts on light show to celebrate Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival
Dubai, United Arab Emirates - September 16, 2024
The Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building and an iconic feature of the skyline in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), on Monday put on a light show to mark the Mid-Autumn Festival, one of China's most important traditional holidays.
The Mid-Autumn Festival, taking place annually on the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar, is celebrated on Sept. 17 this year.
The two-day light show is themed around the Mid-Autumn Festival myth of the Jade Rabbit, the pet of the Chinese moon goddess Chang'e when she lived in the Moon Palace.
The light show presents the dreamy scenes of the Moon Palace and the agile movement of the Jade Rabbit through animation. The human characters in the animation are designed based on the images of children in traditional Chinese New Year paintings, integrating traditional Chinese art elements and patterns.
The light show fascinated residents and touched many overseas Chinese.
This year also marks the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and the UAE. For the iconic Chinese festival and the long-lasting bilateral friendship, the Chinese School Dubai held a celebration event on Sunday, featuring performances of traditional singing and dancing, martial arts, and Chinese calligraphy, as well as interactive activities such as guessing lantern riddles and eating moon cakes.
