Shanghai Lantern Festival

Shanghai Lantern Festival
Just in case you miss this. Shanghai had a special event during the Chinese New Year, the Lantern Festival. It’s held annually and the locals would not miss the chance to take photos of the beautiful decorations in it. Here we have some pics for you.

The Chinese Lantern Festival 2010 was being held in Yuyuan Garden, the finest garden in Shanghai. The whole place is decorated with tons of Chinese lanterns.
