Chinese Halloween

This evening I went to the local Halloween festivities held in front of the "Park-n-shop" about 5 blocks from where I'm staying in 中山, 中国(ZhongShan, China). Although they don't celebrate Halloween in the same way as we do in the U.S (i.e. going door to door asking for candy) they definitely celebrate it. Tons of people were in costume although there were probably 10 times as many people simply watching the crazy costumed group.
I also noticed that all the foreigners of the town came out in force. I've gone days and days without seeing a single foreigner in this town. In fact its pretty rare that we do see a foreigner but they were all out this evening AND in costume!
