Step into a vibrant celebration of tradition at Beijing’s China Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum, where a new Spring Festival-themed exhibition is turning heads! With over 120 provincial and national-level cultural treasures on display, the showcase acts like a time machine, guiding visitors through the Lunar New Year’s rich timeline—from pre-holiday prep to the lantern-lit finale 🎉.
The exhibit isn’t just about artifacts; it’s a full-sensory journey. Think life-sized dioramas of bustling markets in Shaanxi, intricate paper-cuttings from Fujian, and the aroma of symbolic festive foods wafting through the air 🥟. For young travelers and diaspora communities, it’s a nostalgic slice of home. For everyone else? A crash course in why this holiday truly unites 1.4 billion people.
“We wanted to mirror how families across China celebrate differently but share the same spirit,” says curator Li Wei. Spoiler: They’ve nailed it. Visitors are snapping selfies with DIY lantern workshops and roaring over regional folk performances—proof that ancient customs still slay in 2024 💥.
