More than 10,000 colorful lanterns have lit up the night sky in Guangzhou's Nansha district!
The grand lighting ceremony for the 2025 Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Lantern Festival (referred to as the “Greater Bay Area Lantern Festival”) dazzled visitors on Jan 22, when thousands of lanterns were illuminated.
With the theme “Illuminating China, Radiant Greater Bay Area”, the festival blends two intangible cultural heritage traditions: Chinese New Year and traditional lantern art. It incorporates cultural elements from the Greater Bay Area cities and the Belt and Road Initiative. By combining modern technology and light art, the event showcases the pioneering, open and collaborative spirit of the Greater Bay Area.
