Nagasaki Lantern Festival 

 

This annual festival in Nagasaki is held to celebrate the Chinese

New Year. It originally started as a New Year celebration among

the Chinese residents living in Nagasaki, before expanding into

a major city-wide festival in 1994. During the festival, more than

10,000 lanterns beautifully decorate Chinatown and the

surrounding areas.
