Hong Kong Intangible Cultural Heritage – Exhibition on Traditional Craftsmanship of Lantern Making

"Glittering Fish‧Lanterns with Abundant Blessings"*

The Intangible Cultural Heritage Office invited experienced paper-crafting Master Mr. Mo Cheuk Kei to make exquisite lanterns for this year's lantern carnival with the theme of "Glittering Fish‧Lanterns with Abundant Blessings". These lanterns look like a traditional New Year painting. The cute little lions play fish on the pond, happily sticking "huichun" (spring scrolls) and praying for the new year.

*Organised by the Intangible Cultural Heritage Office
