Come to Ximen to experience the lively atmosphere of the Lantern Festival!

This visit to the lantern festival was really full of surprises! The lights at the Zhonghua Road exhibition area are blooming along the road, and the most eye-catching one is the oversized Taipei Bear. However, because Xiong Zan itself is black, it is not easy to take pictures at night, and it feels a bit hidden in the light. The most distinctive one is undoubtedly the "Chenghuang Shengfu Ping'an Bridge". The bridge symbolizes exorcising evil spirits, bringing good fortune and luck, and people can also ring the golden gong to pray for peace. When the golden gong sounds, the warm and long echo is particularly atmospheric and makes people feel full of blessings. This is also my favorite lighting installation this year! The lighting in the Ximen exhibition area is full of creativity, with stunning works in every corner. "Flying Snake Welcoming Spring" is a small snake that can shake its head. The dynamic design makes it look particularly lively and cute. The theme of "White Snake Turn" is drama, with 5 rings showing classic scenes from "The Legend of White Snake", full of artistic sense. "Cheers to Celebration" is the lighting of Taiwan Beer. Just seeing it makes people want to have a beer. The most interesting thing is the blue "Transformers" light decoration, which actually has a snake tail hidden behind it. It is really creative! Finally, of course, we cannot miss the lovable "Five-Way God of Wealth". They are cute and bring fortune, making people want to make a wish, hoping that the new year will be full of wealth. Overall, this year's Lantern Festival is not only gorgeous in lighting, but also full of ingenuity. A walk around is both interesting and full of surprises. It is really worth coming to experience it in person! #JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 #Lantern Festival #Lanterns #BearPraise #Transformers #TaipeiAttractions
