The Qinhuai Lantern Festival, which has been held for 32 consecutive sessions, will be officially lit up on January 28. The theme of this lantern festival is "dazzling spring festival in Nanjing and Happy Chinese New Year", which will be extended until March 31. This year, Nanjing will also join hands with Xi'an to hold the "Twin City Lantern Festival" with lanterns to be lit up simultaneously at the Grand Bao’en Temple in Nanjing and the Xi'an City Wall. Qinhuai Lantern Fair is a popular folk cultural activity in Nanjing, mainly held during the period from the Spring Festival to the Lantern Festival. For those who have a strong interest in Chinese cultures and folklores, the Qinhuai River Lantern Festival provides them an excellent chance, which should not be missed.
