Starting with the setting sun, the hours when lights and music blended were the most alluring. Generous pathways, photo spots throughout, and busking and activities that flowed naturally made everything feel lighter. Like the lingering touch of an autumn breeze, it was a festival that let you feel a warm day even in the heart of the city.
