Yuyuan Lantern Festival shines around the world
Miraculous 2025 Yuyuan Lantern Festival!
As a national intangible cultural heritage, the Yu Garden Lantern Festival has become a landmark cultural event in Shanghai since its launch in 1995. In 2025, the Yu Garden Lantern Festival will be "30 years old". Over the past 30 years, the Yu Garden Lantern Festival has been rooted in the core of Shanghai's old town and the Greater Yu Garden area, the root of Shanghai culture. It is a lantern festival that has grown with Shanghai. From different perspectives such as lantern production, intangible cultural heritage, technological innovation, and humanistic stories, it tells the world the Chinese story of oriental life aesthetics. It has developed from a traditional folk lantern festival to an IP with great cultural vitality, creating a national and global Yu Garden Lantern Festival. More than Yu Garden, more than lanterns, more than Shanghai.

Continuation of the Mysterious Jungle Realm of Shanhaiqiyuji
The 2025 Yu Garden Lantern Festival will continue the story of "The Wonderful Records of Mountains and Seas", turning from the perspective of grand narrative into the ordinary world, telling the stories of every ordinary person who is like every tiny light in the lights, with the theme of "everything is beautiful, all beings are wonderful", and unfolding the narrative around the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" chapter of Conglin, showing the magical scene of Conglin's all-encompassing and vibrant life. Everyone in the world has their own value and meaning of existence.

This season to Disneyland to play, just not cold or hot, the temperature is very suitable. And the hundred flowers are in full bloom, very beautiful. The price of Disneyland tickets on Saturday is much more expensive than usual, but it is also because it is a bit expensive, so there are fewer people than on weekdays, and the most popular items are queued for about 40 minutes. Ordinary items are more than ten minutes and the experience is very good.

Shanghai people have never been to the Oriental Pearl Tower. They were removed from Shanghai once. It coincided with the child&#39;s birthday. Take him to see it. By the way, take his parents to the first tallest building in Pudong. It can be seen that there is a certain time, but it is still quite iconic.

This exhibition has been open for so long, but there are still so many people. Tour groups come in wave after wave. You can only see the exhibits through the gaps. There are 3 exhibition halls in total, and it is quite tiring to go around them all. However, the exhibition is still quite good, especially the Cat Temple. There are always the sounds of kittens, which is very cute.
