A grand military parade will be held at the Tiananmen Square, Beijing on Oct. 1 to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
At the training site of the military parade, the soldiers are practicing their movements over and over again. They are sweating heavily, but they are spirited and determined. Their tall and straight postures, uniform steps, resonant voices form a beautiful view.
