During the Spring Festival, the 37th temple fair held at Beijing’s Ditan Park embraced the theme of “Chinese New Year,” offering visitors a spectacular blend of visual art and cultural heritage.
From the entrance to key areas along the park’s main pathways, traditional elements such as symbols of the zodiac, woodblock prints, couplets, and paper-cuts were seamlessly woven into the design of the landscape, transforming the fair into a living “art exhibition” of Chinese New Year customs.
This year’s temple fair has brought together diverse New Year traditions from across China, offering stage performances, interactive experiences, and themed exhibitions. Spectacular performances such as lion dances, Korean hat dances, and stilt-walking shows captivated audiences, garnering rounds of applause.
