Tourist poses with decoration parterre in Tian'anmen Square (3/3)

A tourist poses for photos with an 18.2-meter-high parterre, which was set to celebrate the National Day on Oct. 1, in the center of the Tian'anmen Square, the landmark of Beijing, capital of China, Sept. 24, 2013. National Day visitors to the Tian'anmen Square will see simpler parterres than in previous years, as the city government will slash its spending on decorations in a bid to implement the central leadership's guidelines on curbing extravagance.
