A toddler plays in Xiangmi Park, Futian District, yesterday. A lantern show will be held at the park tonight to celebrate the Lantern Festival, the last day of the Spring Festival period. This year’s Lantern Festival falls on today. Historically known as “Valentine’s Day,” the ancient Lantern Festival was a time when women would walk together on this bright night, searching for their ideal husband. Today, the festival has evolved beyond just a romantic night for young people. On this special day, families come together to enjoy lanterns and pray for a bright future. Visitors can take Metro Line 7 to Nonglin Station, Exit C, to reach the park.Liu Xudong |
