Year of the Ox at Shanghai Yuyuan Lantern Festival 🇨🇳

On the 15th day of Chinese New Year is Lantern Festival. Yu Garden in Shanghai celebrates Lantern Festival in an amazing way! Usually the lights are put up in January and then stay there until after Lantern Festival. 🚇 Take Line 10 or 14 on the metro to Yuyuan Station. Go out through Exit 7 and walk 500 metres to Yu Garden. The bridge with 9 turns can get the most crowded so I recommend going there when the lights are first turned on, around 5pm! It’s truly a wonderful sight to witness, and don’t forget to bring your camera! 📸 #mytravelhacks #historicallandmarks #localguides #familytrip #chinesenewyear #lanternfestival #yugarden #china #chinatrip #shanghai #shanghaitrip #summerdestinations
