As the paraders escorting the portrait passed the Tian'anmen Rostrum, where Mao announced the founding of the PRC 70 years ago, a burst of applause and cheers erupted from the audience.
A huge portrait of Deng Xiaoping, the chief architect of China's reform and opening-up, was also displayed during the mass pageantry.
