Zhanjiang's coastal skies offer special view of moon

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, bringing thoughts of home and family to Chinese communities around the world, Zhanjiang in southern China offers a distinctive place to admire the full moon. Set along the low-latitude coast of South China, the city has natural conditions ideal for moon viewing.

Here, the moon rises at a moderate angle, appearing closer to the horizon and making the full moon look larger and rounder.
