Giant Lanterns are Here Again


It's time for the Mid Autumn Festival! And that means mooncakes, parades, giant lanterns and more mooncakes. This time the lantern display is at the Chinese Gardens, a sprawling 8 hectares of park in Jurong West. The theme: The World of Legends:



The monkey king striking a pose:





Animals of the zodiac:























Ever heard of the legend of the archer who shot down the extra suns?





 


Guardians of the bridge:








No display is complete without pandas:


Lions guarding the steps to the pagoda:


Taking a rest after a long walk:



 Too bad the fireworks are only for Sundays and the parade won't be till the 12th. Still had lots of fun taking photos. Got really tired after an hour of walking though. Actually, been getting tired easily for the past week. Hmm...
