In the heart of Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown, a new art installation Beyond The Moonlit Door celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival with a glowing transformation of the laneway in the Kwai Chai Hong area.

After the Chinese New Year tiger and paper cut installation by Alice Chang and Odd early this year, this new installation pays homage to old world Chinese heritage, taking inspiration from elements from the Mid-Autumn Festival, including the use of paper lanterns, Oriental doors and windows.
