The Gardens by the Bay is one of the places that celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival annually. Activities included in the celebrations are games and a mini carnival and food fair, Chinese cultural dance and instrumental performances, and lantern displays. Although the main events are usually on the weekend before the actual date – unless the festival falls on a weekend, the lanterns on display were put up a couple of weeks before that, and left at least a week after the festival so that people can enjoy the display. This year, the lantern display will be on until the 22nd of September.
Inspiration for this centrepiece came from the rising moon and water elements of the Dragonfly Lake.

I went down last week on a weekday, to avoid the crowds, to see this year’s display. I had a quick wander around the gardens in the late afternoon, went for dinner and had a wander around the gardens again in the evening when the lights came on.
Here are photos of some of the lanterns on display before the lights came on.
