Xi'an kicks off Spring Festival with lantern show
In addition to different colorful lanterns and mythological dragon models, the lantern show integrates with classic ancient poetry and intangible cultural heritage lamp craftsmanship to create a festive cultural atmosphere of "one step, one quatrain, one lamp, one poem".
A total of 22 pairs of red and bright giant Spring Festival couplets have been hung on the 16 gates of the Xi'an City Wall, including Yongning and Changle, demonstrating a happy and harmonious festive atmosphere.
Meanwhile Xi'an is also interacting with the ancient cities of Malacca in Malaysia, Zhengding in Hebei, Kaifeng in Henan, Guangzhou in Guangdong and Datong in Shanxi this year to showcase the brilliant night scenery of various regions when they are illuminated in the "Chinese Red" of the Chinese New Year together to spread Chinese civilization and inherit traditional culture.
