Imagine wandering through a glowing sea of lanterns shaped like soaring dragons, mythical creatures, and blooming flowers – all under a starlit Malaysian sky. 🐉✨ That’s the reality at a hidden-gem village near Kuala Lumpur, where a 90% Hokkien Chinese community hosts one of Asia’s most dazzling Chinese New Year displays!
For six months, villagers and volunteers craft giant lanterns, with this year’s \"dragon fever\" taking center stage. The temple grounds transform into a 12-acre wonderland, attracting nearly 1 million visitors and boosting local shops, food stalls, and hotels. 🏮💸
\"It’s like stepping into a fairy tale,\" said one traveler. Even government officials join the launch of the 11-day festival, celebrating the fusion of Fujianese heritage and Malaysian multiculturalism. Ready to add this to your travel bucket list? 📸🇲🇾
