"This
is the 'common prosperity relay' and also the main lantern of our lantern
festival." Ding Wenwen, one of the planners of this New Year's lantern
festival, said that the 'colorful fish' dragon lantern symbolizes the builders
of beautiful rural areas wandering in the wave of rural revitalization,
gathering together in a relay to form a soaring dragon. In recent years, Yucun
has actively promoted the "Yucun Global Partnership Plan", which has
attracted many young people and rural areas to travel in both directions. The 9
sets of 11 original dragon lanterns displayed this time were designed for the
first time by Yucun Global Partners and young cartoonists. Each set of dragon
lanterns contains stories of Yucun's development and youth participation in
rural revitalization.
In
front of more than 10 new cultural and tourism venues, such as the Impression
Youth Library, Qinglai Collection, Xiangyin Small Hall, Partner's Home, and
Yucun Post Office, there are dragon lanterns with different themes. Some
"dragons" leisurely sit on chairs playing guitar, while others take a
fashionable stroll in the village on a balance bike. "It's the first time
I've seen so many new formats and scenery in the countryside, paired with a
dragon lantern exhibition, which feels very fresh and interesting." She
ordered a cup of coffee at the Yucun Township Music Center and Shanghai tourist
Qi Lili kept taking selfies with her phone.
"The
dragon lantern at the entrance of my store is called 'Dragon Singing
Chengxiang', displaying a joyful and low singing posture of a dragon. It
represents the beautiful lifestyle that Yucun has created for young people,
allowing them to freely showcase their talents in the countryside." Huang
Bin, the manager of Yucun Township Music Hall, said that "youth
power" has become the new label of Yucun.
It
is reported that the Yucun New Year Lantern Festival will continue until March
11th. During the holiday, there will be a series of rich and interesting
lantern festival supporting activities such as intangible cultural heritage
street walking, Gongfu Market, music parties, fantasy tours, influencer
check-in, and New Year's cuisine, bringing tourists a youthful, lively, fresh,
and interesting cultural feast.
