The “Light Up Chinatown” project in 2021 permanently installed hundreds of lanterns and lights in Chinatown, Manhattan. This is just a sneak peek of a post I’m working on showing the beauty and creativity of the wonderful paper lanterns. Stay tuned, and you’ll learn about their significance in Chinese culture…and see some fun photos, too!
