Chinatown Mid Autumn Festival Street Light Up for 2014

Last night, we went to Chinatown to watch the street light up for this year mid autumn festival.

The road were closed for the night event. The decorations and lights will be from Aug 24 until Sep 28

Everyone were so excited once the VIPs switched on the lights for the decorations.

Visitors to Chinatown will be able to see streets in full bloom, lit by 3,100 flower-shaped lanterns for the first time.

Some short videos on the event for the day.

Love the displays of these huge opera maks but as it was crowded, taking photos of these masks proved to be a challenge. Dont you hate it when someone just cross infront of your camera while you are trying take a good shot of the object. hahaha
