A feast of technology and culture recently kicked off in Wuhan, capital of central China's Hubei Province.

Stretching along the riverfront from Wuhan Yangtze River Grand Bridge to Second Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, the city's architecture, bridges, vessels, and docks were artfully illuminated to depict a panorama of the Yangtze basin's diverse landmarks.

In the sky above the Yangtze River, thousands of drones in formation represented the Tanggula Mountains, Potala Palace, Great Bend of the Jinsha River, Huangguoshu Waterfall, Giant Pandas, Hongya Cave, Three Gorges Dam, Yueyang Tower, Tengwang Pavilion, Horse Head-Shaped Wall, Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon, and Oriental Pearl Tower.

Fireworks soared from the river surface, creating a dazzling night display.

The?Yangtze River?has shaped a millennia-old cultural context, serving as a symbol of the Chinese nation and civilization. Hubei is the province with the longest course of the Yangtze River.

The Yangtze River Culture and Art Season was jointly hosted by the People's Government of Hubei Province, Yangtze River Water Resources Commission of the Ministry of Water Resources, and China Yangtze Three Gorges Corporation Limited.?

The event will last until Nov. 4, featuring a variety of activities, including themed art exhibitions, film week, stage performances, choral singing, reading events, literature festivals, and intangible cultural heritage exhibits, all aiming to fully display the essence and charm of Yangtze River culture.
