2022 is the Year of the Tiger in Renyin, which marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party of our country. Therefore, the Lantern Festival in Yuyuan is more traditional than last year, with more oriental aesthetics and beautiful national trends.

With the theme of "Tiger Leaps in the East","Intangible Cultural Heritage Culture" is integrated into the New Year Lantern Festival. Various tiger shapes are scattered in every corner of the scenic area. Let's go and have a look!

The 2022 Year of the Tiger New Year Yuyuan Lantern Festival will use zodiac tigers of different shapes as an important element in the atmosphere of welcoming the New Year. It features theme light groups such as "Tiger Leaps the East","God of Wealth" and "Nine Songs and Twenty Four". Exquisite sheepskin palace lanterns, Shanghai style lighting, traditional lanterns, school ground New Year painting lanterns and other gorgeous lanterns complement the ancient buildings of Yu Garden, making it beautiful! The Lantern Festival runs from January 18 to February 18 and is worth watching and shooting.

There was a good day on the fifth day of the lunar month to go to Yuyuan to join in the fun. It was really lively when we arrived. It was crowded with people. The scenic area was crowded with people. People were controlled. There was a long queue at the entrance. It took us 32 minutes to queue up to enter the scenic area.

Follow the designated tour route of the scenic area and have a tour, and there are waves of people everywhere.

After entering the scenic area, you will arrive at the Golden Square.

Golden Square has blessings as its core. Under the lucky tree, the "God of Wealth" holds a golden and oversized ingot in one hand and makes a modern "yeah" gesture with the other hand. Sure enough, the God of Wealth also keeps pace with the times.

The "God of Wealth" holds gold ingots in one hand and compares with the other, bringing New Year blessings to tourists and praying that money will roll in in the new year and the family will be blessed and safe.

God of Wealth, this shape is really creative and pleasing. Everyone likes it. Of course, you must take a photo with it when you come here, which also has a very auspicious meaning.

All the colorful lights came to the "Tiger Leaps the East" in the central square

"Tiger Leaps in the East" is the super domineering king of the mountains, a tiger that is 9 meters tall. He is brave and arrogant as if he is stepping on the top of a mountain, showing the demeanor of a king.

At night, the Zodiac Year of the Tiger themed lanterns about 9 meters high complement the lights of the ancient Ming and Qing dynasties buildings in Yuyuan, making them even more powerful.

This group of zodiac tiger lanterns is very spectacular. Their shapes combine the Winter Olympics and the costumes of astronauts. They are naive, cute and lifelike.

In front of it is an astronaut tiger holding the national flag, and next to it is a skiing tiger participating in the Beijing Winter Olympics.

Of course, there are countless tourists holding mobile phones and cameras to take photos. On the side of Huabao Tower, a scroll "A century is in full bloom" shows the prosperity of the motherland.

If there is a better meaning, it must be the Jiuqu Bridge in Yuyuan. It has the saying of one in nine and one in nine and five, and is full of auspicious and noble eloquence.

Although the Jiuqu Bridge is winding and winding, it is said that walking a complete Jiuqu Bridge once a year during the Spring Festival will bring good luck.

"Nine Songs and Twenty Four" combines the interpretation and tradition of the little tiger through the spring-related solar terms among the traditional twenty-four solar terms, such as the folk customs of the beginning of spring, rain, sting, vernal equinox, Qingming Festival, and grain rain, allowing more people to know.

Each has a different zodiac tiger lantern set. The cute zodiac tiger is very cute. The beautiful lanterns embellished the Jiuqu Bridge as if it were real and illusory, like a dream ~

Of course, in addition to the lantern festival in Yu Garden, the old school road outside Yu Garden is also a lively scene. The unique national trend market here may allow you to find many infinite memories of childhood.
