A New Year's Night

Multi-colored lighted floats and red lanterns are two of the many attractions Duyun offers in celebration of the Chinese New Year. With the river dammed several weeks before New Year's, workers build their masterpieces on the damp river bed. The water is then released (slowly) and the floats illuminated on New Year's Eve.
