Time is running out for those interested in seeing the color and light of the Chinese Lantern Festival at Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden in Belmont, NC
This event features an amazing 800 hand-crafted Chinese lanterns spread out over the 12-plus acres of the formal gardens and public space at Daniel Stowe. The park reports this is the largest exhibition to date at the botanical garden.
We first blogged about this incredible event showcasing paper and silk lanterns of giant jellyfish, brilliant spotted cheetahs, glowing orange and green praying mantis, a month ago.
If you don’t believe our words, then check out our video highlighting some of the truly remarkable creations at this outdoor exhibit.
