The snake and piggy lanterns are putting together.
The view of this part is from "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Here you could see the theme of this lantern exhibition: 2007 Folkcustom and local art lantern exhibition of Yu Garden .
This part is called " Welcome the Spring by Magpie". In Chinese, magpie is a lucky figure, we call it "喜鹊"(xi3=pleased, que4=magpie).
They titled this part as " Sea world". The lanterns are all types of fishes. Among them, lots of riddles were hanged over.
This one is the main dispaly of the lanterns. You see?? Big pig with lots of piggise. Yes, Piggy is the leading role of the show.
This is the Wish tree in the City God Temple. I took it last night. And I found out how to put the wishes on the top of the tree at last. ;)
