The Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon is approaching, and the lanterns of Huizhou West Lake were officially completed today, and the online reservation channel for lantern viewing is also open at the same time, so let's follow the reporter's lens to have a sneak peek.
The big trees on both sides of the West Lake Su Causeway are also decorated, hung with all kinds of colored lanterns and light strips, and the lake is made up with several water lanterns full of national style and meaning of peace. After a few years, Huizhou West Lake lanterns will be "lit up" again in the Year of the Dragon.
Sichuan Zigong City Yuanshi Culture and Art *** Project Manager Song Hongying:Our workers came from Zigong, Sichuan, a total of more than 60 people, working from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. At the construction site, many citizens were very happy to know that there were lanterns this year, and we were also very happy to hear that the citizens were looking forward to it.
This year, Huizhou West Lake lanterns adopt the production process of the national intangible cultural heritage "Zigong lanterns", integrate the local cultural characteristics of Huizhou, and set up 24 sets of light shows in 8 areas, including East Gate, Su Causeway, Sizhou Tower, Dongpo Garden, Xiangyi Square, Diancuizhou, Fanghuazhou and Fenghu Academy.
The light show is mainly based on modern light and shadow technology, supplemented by traditional lanterns, to create a visual feast of "fire trees and silver flowers never sleep". Among them, the most unmissable is the Dongpo Poetry Forest, which is composed of more than 800 popular Su Dongpo poems.
From February 7 to February 24 from 18:30 to 22:30 West Lake, Huizhou West Lake will implement an appointment system, and the reservation system has been officially launched today. Citizens and tourists can enter the reservation interface through the "Huizhou West Lake Scenic Area"** or "Huizhou West Lake Scenic Area" applet, click on the date and time, and select the number of people to make an appointment to submit.
It should be reminded that the daily reservation quota will be released 3 days in advance, and the same mobile phone number can be reserved for up to 6 people, and the reservation can be canceled at any time.
Li Luqi, Director of the Administration and Personnel Department of the West Lake Scenic Area Management Center of Huizhou City:The overall flow control is 40,000 people per night, and the safety of the park is ensured by limiting the number of people entering the park. At the same time, we have also installed guardrails in the Su Causeway and Yanlong Bridge area to prevent safety accidents in the wading area.
During the period when the West Lake lanterns are lit up, traffic control will be implemented on the three traffic routes near the West Lake Scenic Area. The ring road formed by Huancheng West Road to Chaojing Gate implements counterclockwise one-way traffic; Zhongshan East Road implements one-way traffic from west to east, and large vehicles are prohibited from passing on the above sections, and taxis and online car-hailing vehicles are prohibited from temporarily stopping to pick up and drop off passengers.
Li Luqi, Director of the Administration and Personnel Department of the West Lake Scenic Area Management Center of Huizhou City:Tourists are reminded to take public transportation to Huizhou West Lake to enjoy the lanterns as much as possible.
