Mid Autumn Festival - Floats on Singapore River

More floats on Singapore River. Most with chinese theme as it is the Mid Autumn Festival.

This float was designed based on the story of Dream of the Red Chamber.

This float was designed based on the story of Water Margin

Another interesting float of a war story - The Three Kingdoms.

This is the most famous float with the most famous legend story of the Journey to the West

The monk with the three disciples

Goddess of Mercy
I have more photos of the lanterns and floats during the night where they were lighted.
