Year Yuyuan Lantern Festival protagonist is undoubtedly "rat". In addition to Yuyuan's golden rats, Mickey, a household name, will also make his debut in Yuyuan to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
This year's Yuyuan Lantern Festival, Yuyuan Mall in cooperation with Disney, invited Mickey and Minnie, the two favorite animation stars around the world, to the 2008 Yuyuan Lantern Festival, with Chinese and foreign tourists **** a memorable Chinese New Year.
Under the general theme, the Yuyuan Mall's Golden Square, Jiuquqiao Square, the center of the three squares will also be based on different themes to present different lighting designs to "five blessings to meet the happy family", "Yangtze River Delta with water", The three themes of "well-off society and beautiful China" will be used as the interpretation of the immersive vacation scene.
Center Square
At the center square, the 9-meter-high main light set is particularly eye-catching. A dynamic and proud "Yuyuan Golden Mouse" stands on a giant dragon boat riding the waves, symbolizing the spirit of the Chinese nation in the trend of the times. On the west side of the dragon, there is a brave rat waving a big drum, accompanied by two golden unicorns, representing the young region as the driving force for future development, striving to innovate and keep moving forward. On the dragon boat, a happy family of four with their adorable pets stand at the bow of the boat, heading for a happier and better life in the new year.
Golden Plaza
The Golden Plaza area is centered on the Chinese New Year culture of praying for good luck and wealth. The main lantern set in this area is designed as a treasure bowl, a jewel of Chinese folklore. This year's Golden Square floor lantern set is based on this.
Jiuquqiao Square
The design of the main lantern set in Jiuquqiao Square is based on the famous "koi fish" element of Yuyuan Garden. The 8-meter-high giant red carp seems to leap out of the water and cross the "Dragon Gate". The idea of the lantern group comes from the legend of the carp Yue Longmen, symbolizing the spirit of upward mobility and continuous progress.
