To celebrate Little New Year (Chinese: Xiao Nian), the Jinpu New Area held the 2022 Jinshitan Lantern Festival at Jinshitan Botanical Garden, turning cold winter nights into a joyous prelude to Lunar New Year. The event will last until Feb 27, during which visitors can appreciate the lantern show, taste local snacks, and watch the traditional Jinpu intangible cultural heritage performance - dragon dance. There were also winter sports activities for visitors to experience Olympic fun ahead of the upcoming Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.
