The Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing has prepared an unusual farewell gift for its graduates, turning the campus into a sea of watermelons.

It was a surprise specially prepared for students by the university, according to Beijing Morning Post.

A thin fog covers the watermelon field to add mystery.

"To surprise students, we did it before dawn. So when students get up in the morning, it seems that the watermelons just sprung up one night," a CAFA employee explained. After the opening ceremony, the watermelons were given to graduates.
