Qinhuai Lantern Traditions

Around the Lunar New Year, Qinhuai's lantern traditions turn evening walks into a celebration of light and local life. The displays form part of a seasonal festival culture.

Lantern displays bring light and local stories into the evening streets around Qinhuai. Their strongest connection is with the Lunar New Year season, so the experience changes with the time of your visit.
