Chinese Lanterns: An Enduring Heritage

The dazzling lantern displays carry a profound and enduring Chinese cultural heritage. The Lantern Display features a 6-metre ornate palace lantern, along with sky lanterns, lotus flower, carp fish and peony lanterns. It also includes cute little lions and fish made by local paper-crafting master, all of which contribute to the inheritance of traditional craftsmanship and culture.

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.
