The Yu Garden Light Show live is a must-see! Shanghai's winter nights are legendary!

💛Who would have thought that Yu Garden would look so beautiful on a winter night! When it gets completely dark, the lights by the Nine-turn Bridge slowly come on, and the colorful winter light show at Yu Garden begins! From the quiet night to the lively celebration, every moment makes you realize how stunning Chinese aesthetics can be. 👉🏻The entire show follows the rhythm of "awakening—flowing—gathering—echoing." At first, only a few faint lights outline the ancient buildings, very peaceful. Then warm yellow and golden lights gradually spread, instantly waking up the whole garden. It looks incredibly striking and carries a sense of Chinese romance. Next, white lights fall like snow on the Nine-turn Bridge and pavilions, with reflections on the water creating a moving ink painting that slowly calms the heart. Finally, red and orange lights come on, along with fireworks-like light effects. The music becomes lively and full of joyful excitement, filled with the warmth of New Year reunions. Watching and listening is truly thrilling, fully immersing you in the atmosphere of Chinese aesthetics! ✨When the lights dim at the end, your heart feels warm and hopeful. You realize this is more than just a spectacle; it’s a deeply engraved Chinese romance. Yu Garden on a winter night is definitely worth a special visit~
