Lantern Festival in Beijing: See the Puzhou Bench Dragon

The Puzhou Bench Dragon is a super cool intangible cultural heritage from Zhejiang! The dragon lantern is made of wooden benches and can be up to 100 meters long! ❗️ It's a "collection of art" that combines calligraphy, painting, paper cutting, carving, and sculpture. It also combines sports, acrobatics, and dance. When it moves, it has a rough power and a delicate beauty. 👍 . 📅 February 12 (the 15th day of the first lunar month) 10:30–11:30: Parade from the west wall of the Beiding Niangniang Temple in the Olympic Park to the south square of the Bird's Nest 15:00–16:00: Bench Dragon performance at the Chinese Communist Party History Exhibition Hall 🎫 Free, reservation required
