China prepares for its 60th anniversary
Chinese citizens and government workers have been preparing for months for their upcoming celebration of the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China on October 1st. Parts of Beijing have been shut down several times, allowing for rehearsals of a once-in-a-decade military parade, multiple artistic performances and shows, fireworks and more. Security concerns are high as well, bringing out large details of security personnel and equipment. Collected here are images from the past several weeks of people around China preparing to celebrate their National Day. (37 photos total)

Nice set of photos. After the Olympic opening ceremony last year, they've set a pretty high standard for themselves. I'm sure the organizers will not disappoint.
#5: The road that runs in front of Tiananmen is Changan Ave. "Changan" can be translated as "Long Peace," but this is the first time I've seen Changan Ave called the "Avenue of Heavenly Peace." A new name for it, perhaps?
#12: Will they add a sign that reads "all travelers are required to deposit their explosive devices in the container before boarding the train"? ;-)

great pictures,
on a ethical note, when I see the chinese still celebrating Mao, a man that is responsible for the death of about 50 million of his own people. I think there are some serious brainwashing issues.

Mao was the founder of the nation so cut him some slack. He transformed China from Somali into a superpower to be, great man.
Now I have been living in the US for a long time, it's hard to say which country has bigger brainwashing issues, China or the US.

To help create a country is one thing, to systematically elliminate all opposition by the millions is something no man should recieve admiration for. Try expressing your opinions on Chinese brainwashing in the middle of Tiananmen Square and see how far you get before being hauled off somewhere and never being heard from again...

Seriously, read a history book about China. Mao won a civil war, if he didn't eliminate the KMT pigs, millions of communists/peasants/labors would have been eliminated by the KMT which happened to be the most corrupt government of all time.
There are boundaries in every country. I happened that in China you better not shout out in the heart of capital. You can honestly tell me there's absolute freedom in the US?

The manpower, organization, and patriotism is absolutely stunning in these photos. I did marching band back in high school and watching these guys march--WOW. (esp #28... and I agree with @9 on #21 & #22...)
In my opinion, China is a nation of great people with a long and impressive history. Sure, modern leaders became corrupt and did bad things, but how is that different from most other nations nowadays? And yes, some things are still quite questionable there, but this is one nation that has come a LONG way in the past two decades--and they're still rising. You have to give them credit there.

@11, We should probably get rid of the Lincoln Memorial because of ethical concerns. The civil war killed 620,000 Americans. Oh but that's for a good cause, anti-slavery, right? Lincoln would have accomplished his plan of shipping back all the blacks to Africa had he not been assassinated. You see? Politics is indeed beyond your peanut brain.

@11, you should visit China some day. Most people there don't give a dime about "Chairman Mao". He surely is part of the (painful) history, but ordinary people there are much more concerned about getting rich and living a better life... And they know the difference between party rhetoric and what's happening in real life. Brain washing is effective in Mao's days, but the Chinese society is so much more open nowadays, I don't see how that is possible.

When living in China, there was a sense that the whole country really had something to prove to the world...
They truly resent the fact that the US still dismisses them as a "Third World Country."
They are a rising military power, a stern authoritarian police state WITH something to prove. Sounds, oh, like Germany about half a century ago?

All of the admiration for these ceremonies that are being planned makes me laugh. Imagine if the U.S. government held similar ceremonies. These comments would be filled with ridicule and derision, and would decry the fact that so many hungry mouths could be fed with the millions being spent on such empty patriotic gestures. Yet, shown photos of the same thing taking place in China and all people can do is utter expressions of awe and admiration. Not to mention the photo of the stutue they have built to honor Mao, one of history's most prolific mass murderers. Yet not a peep of outrage. Try thinking about what you are seeing, instead of simply being dazzled by bright colors and shiny hordes of people singing and dancing.

I am a Chinese college student.These pictures are great shots and I like them very much.However, I hope you can see beyond this images. See what had happened before what's happening in China nowadays.Chinese people's life has improved a lot these years. As to me, my mother school and the local State-owned banks loan me my tuitions to continue my study. Lots of my classmates benefit from this policy signed by the Department of Education and the banks. These kind of policies are spread in areas of life. But those helps a little part of people, too much people still need help, or need a chance to improve their's life.We care about is the justice of society, not how much we can spend on a Celebration. Did the labor-man be paid what he has worked? Did the bad guy be punished according to the law? Did our children and elders are take cared? Every single is from all the lovely laborers. It can't to be too big to become a waste.So I'am partly depressed by these grand views. We are not rich.

Liam, this is just a celebration of a country's birthday, the 60th one. Come on, because you are not rich then this country and the country's people don't deserve a celebration? Are you going to jump out and point fingers whenever there is a celebration going on?Come on, give me a break. Enjoy this moment and if you really care about the people in this country, do your best to learn whatever you need to learn in college and when you get graduated, remember to pay off the loan first and then create a fortune so that you help others.

China = repetition & cloning. At least that's what I see in these images. Great shots, but I am sure there is more to China than this. China is the most capitalist country in the world right now, in that only a proportionately few people are making enormous fortunes off of an army of slaves. I hope to see this change.

@DUDE: I'm Chinese, and have lived in both the West and China. Everywhere in the Western world, you can damn sure shout opposition and heretical things in the capital without being arrested. Even in Hong Kong this is possible. China is more brainwashed than nearly everywhere in the West. America is, indeed, highly brainwashed, but the minority that has independent thought still has the freedom to express it loudly and publicly without being imprisoned, and if security agents do for example, arrest people at a political rally for shouting opposition, someone gets their ass sued, and it makes the news all over the internet without any site being blocked by the Great Firewall or Green Dam. That is a fact. Deal with it. There is no freedom of information or expression in China. I feel sorry for Chinese people who are in denial about our motherland. Just because you love a place, doesn't mean you have to be deluded about it.

#60 I am another Chinese college student and i have to say you are correct. however, you should know that these "grand views" that made you sad need many people and these will expand our employment. by the way, trust me, all of the participants would be paid except those volunteers.
