Description
Taken during the Nagasaki Lantern Festival this year. The reason behind it is to celebrate the good trading ties Nagasaki and China had in the past, coinciding with the Chinese New Year. It's also good for tourism! There are thousands of lanterns lining the streets of Nagasaki at this time, it's really beautiful.Related content

Really nice picture! I like this festival... seems to be more traditional in Japan than in China though.

I have no idea, the feeling just creeps inside you and makes you feel like it isn't even your world.
