Celebrating Chinese New Year 2025 in Shanghai
My friends told me that spending Lunar New Year in Shanghai demands a visit to the City God Temple and a walk across its iconic Nine-Turn Bridge. Locals believe navigating the bridge’s nine twists and eighteen turns symbolizes leaving life’s obstacles behind and welcoming smoothness and good fortune.
When I arrived, I stumbled upon a mesmerizing lantern show hidden within the temple’s labyrinth of streets. The dazzling displays felt almost magical - admiring lantern festivals is, after all, one of China’s most cherished New Year traditions.
If you’re in China during the Spring Festival, don’t miss the endless array of celebrations. Every region offers unique performances and customs, guaranteeing an unforgettable cultural feast for the senses.
