Cute Snake Lanterns Created for Lunar New Year in China

Credited from: APNEWS

  • A workshop in Weifang, China, has created colorful lanterns themed after the Year of the Snake set to debut for the Lunar New Year celebrations.
  • The lanterns feature oversized heads and cartoony designs, departing from traditional representations of snakes.
  • Wang Yongxun, the workshop owner, emphasizes the 'cute feeling' of these lanterns which are taller than the average person and integrate dragon elements.
  • According to folklore expert Wang Juan, snakes represent duality in Chinese culture, embodying both the symbol of spirituality and potential danger.
  • The preparations reflect a cultural shift, aiming to promote a positive image of snakes as guardians rather than symbols of fear.
