With Mid-Autumn Festival just around the corner, Xiamen in East China's Fujian province, is preparing a glittering array of night activities for visitors from around the world.

At Xiamen Ling Ling International Circus World, exciting activities such as festival-themed circus performances and performances featuring African tribes, will be staged around Mid-Autumn Festival.

And, as the night cruise along the Lujiang River -- a narrow strait between Gulangyu Island and Xiamen Island -- took off in popularity during this year's summer vacation, the Lujiang cruise will go on and add more creative activities during the festival.

Last but not least, the Xiamen Mid-Autumn Festival Travel Carnival -- which opened on Aug 30, took the advantage of the 144-hour visa-free transit policy and invited 100 people from home and abroad to experience a number of night activities.

The most popular activities will be added to the regular activities of the annual carnival, according to the organizers.

Some time earlier, Xiamen was added to the list of the Top 10 Most Popular Night Tour Destinations during Mid-Autumn Festival in China, jointly released by travel websites Mafengwo and Tencent Travel.
