As the Lunar New Year approaches, preparations for the time-honored Chinese folk tradition of the Spring Festival Lantern Festival are in full swing across the country. Among the lantern festivals held in various regions, Yancheng Chunqiu Amusement Park’s lantern display is the top recommendation. Why has Yancheng Chunqiu Amusement Park become the first choice for lantern viewing?
1. A Perfect Blend of Past and Present with Many Highlights
In this ancient city site with over 2,700 years of history, Yancheng Chunqiu Amusement Park first illuminated the site with the glow of technology during the 2011 Spring Festival. Countless shining “little stars” transformed the ancient city into a fairytale-like wonderland. This year, the park has further intensified its innovation in lantern displays, employing world-class technology to create surprising and imaginative setups. Notably, the upcoming “Time Corridor” lantern group set within the Hundred Schools of Thought Garden will showcase the thematic features of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, arranged in the sequence of “Spring and Autumn, Three Kingdoms, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing.” As visitors stroll through, they will feel as though they’ve traveled back in time to experience the distinct cultural essence of each dynasty firsthand—an impressive highlight. The grandeur is on par with the Lyon Festival of Lights in France, while also perfectly capturing the spirit of ancient Chinese Spring and Autumn culture.
It’s no surprise that such an international-level Spring Festival lantern festival is widely praised and loved. According to reports, the 2015 Yancheng Chunqiu Amusement Park Lantern Festival is currently in preparation. The park will be closed from February 14 to February 18, 2015, for final testing, and will officially reopen and light up on February 19, 2015. Visitors planning to enjoy the lanterns are advised to arrange their schedules accordingly.
