Illuminating the night with fish-shaped lanterns is a practice passed down for hundreds of years in Shexian, a town in the ancient region of Huizhou in #Anhui Province. The carp-shaped Zhanqi Fish Lanterns symbolize abundance and good fortune and are a much-loved aspect of local #SpringFestival tradition. Happy #ChineseNewYear ! #CNY
