A lake diving event and festival in Wuhan, central China's Hubei Province, attracted crowds of young people on Saturday, showcasing the city's youthful charm and enthusiasm for summertime.
Alongside plentiful food and beverage stalls, the festival kept attendees entertained and active with live music and fitness-friendly activities, including balance boarding and cycling.
The main attraction, the lake diving event, proved overwhelmingly popular, with all 500 available spots sold out within minutes after registration opened.
"Wuhan residents like to swim in the lake in summer. I've made full preparation today. All I need to do is to jump high and dive hard into the lake," said Zhou Yunkai, a local resident.
Held for 14 consecutive years, the festival drew more than 10,000 visitors this year. Its diversified offerings helped drive the vitality of Wuhan's summer economy.
"We come here every year, because 'Share Eastlake' is an iconic and vibrant event here in Wuhan. You can feel the city's generous hospitality and the youthful energy here," said Wu Hui, another local resident.
