This year’s Eid was undeniably different, as the COVID-19 epidemic led to the closure of mosques in Guangxi Province for Eid prayers to ensure everyone’s safety. However, the international students from Guangxi University found a silver lining in these challenging times.
Despite the restrictions, they were allowed to visit Shibu Park (Jingsha Lake Park) for some much-needed respite. The students applied through the proper channels to enjoy a day out at the park, making the most of their time with a barbecue and various activities.
I’m excited to share some photos and videos from this special day. The snapshots capture the students’ vibrant BBQ scenes and joyful moments at Shibu Park. It’s a testament to their spirit of togetherness and adaptability, finding ways to celebrate and create new memories even during the pandemic.
