Disco for the elderly

Date: 1987

Location: Ditan Park

Disco, originating in France in the 1960s, spread to China in the 1980s. With its strong rhythms and thrumming beats, disco was loved by young people. While the noisy environment of disco dance halls were not suitable for the elderly, some gathered in the park to dance to a more relaxed rhythm to stay fit.
