A musical flash mob in celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China took place outside of the Liangzhu Museum in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang province, on March 17.

The archaeological museum is dedicated to Neolithic Liangzhu culture, which dates back to some 5,000 years ago.

Sponsored by the publicity department of Yuhang district, the event gathered a group of professional artists from local orchestras and chorus to put on a variety of musical performances, as well as people from all walks of life who were visiting the museum.
