As night falls and the moon rises on the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival, be sure to bring your loved ones to Shanghai's Qingpu district to witness the full moon, enjoy the splendid night scenery, and stay at a traditional town guesthouse.

The Yuandang Bridge, which spans both Shanghai and Suzhou, looks like a colorful ribbon gracefully gliding over Yuandang Lake. Dianshan Lake is also one of the best spots in Qingpu for moon-gazing. Every Mid-Autumn Festival night, the full moon hangs high in the sky, casting its light onto the lake's surface and creating a shimmering, dreamlike effect.
