Beijing locals and visitors will embrace another joyful season of recreational activities during the Paralympics.

The Outdoor Cultural Plaza performance has started its run at various parks and public areas, to boost the atmosphere for the Paralympics Games.

The undoubted stars of the shows are disabled performers. They're selected from disabled art troupes from around China. And they've been delighting audiences with their Tai chi performances and gymnastics. Colorful outdoor art shows will contribute to the idea "Two Games with Equal Splendor".

The outdoor performance will feature repertoires of various art troupes from Beijing. That means able bodied artists will mingle with disabled artists to celebrate the event in many public areas of the Chinese capital.

The outdoor performances will grace Beijing throughout the Paralympics.
