Penang International Lantern Festival

We drove all the way to Juru Autocity to see the Lantern Festival exhibits. It was the official opening ceremony and the event would last till the end of this year. The theme of the festival is "Hello Kitty & Friends" - you will know what I mean later. The crowd was just nice, there were not too many people. The exhibits are wonderful, a very colorful night indeed. I haven't been seeing such great displays for a very long time - the last I can remember was in Tokyo during the Millenia Celebration. The attraction is divided into several sections - bird santuary, water point, dinosaurs land, the wild, elephant camp, kitty lantern, penang bridge. There were also stage performances. We just simply walk and snap the night away ^_^ I personally think it's a nice place to visit and if you do plan a visit, it costs RM15/RM10 for adult/child respectively per person (buy one get one free on Mon-Thurs). Remember to bring a camera!
