The Shanghai Book Fair opened on Wednesday with organizers taking measures to help shield visitors from an ongoing heat wave.
The book fair has installed spray-cooling facilities in a waiting zone in front of the Shanghai Exhibition Center to cool visitors.
"This will lower the temperature by around 3-5 degrees," said Kan Ninghui, vice-director of the Shanghai press and publication bureau.
