At 6:52 on January 1, the first ray of sunshine in 2021 came as scheduled. Shanghai ushered in the first day of the new year in the golden sunshine.
Hundreds of tourists felt the first rays of sunlight illuminate the city of Shanghai and made their first wish for the new year in the Shanghai Center, the tallest building in China and the second tallest in the world.
Mr. Huang, a Taiwanese guy who has been working in Shanghai for 6 years, told reporters that 2020 will be particularly ups and downs due to the epidemic.
The first sunshine of the new year makes people full of hope.
I hope that in 2021, the epidemic will subside as soon as possible, so that everyone can return to their old lives.
He also wrote his first postcard of 2021 and mailed it to his family, wishing them good health.
11-year-old Chen Zhuo is a fifth-grade elementary school student. She hopes to reduce the number of online classes in the new year and meet more with classmates and teachers.
It is worth mentioning that Sketch Shanghai invited more than 20 professional painters and powerful painters to sketch and create the "First Dawn" works on site for charity sale. The charity raised by the bazaar will be donated to Shanghai Lianquan Charity Foundation.
Zhang Tiantian, a watercolor painter who arrived in the center of Shanghai at 4:30 this morning, is one of them.
He admitted that he is based in Hangzhou and has never been to Shanghai New Year's Eve. "I am very excited to see the first sunshine of the New Year."
