Palace Museum lit up for the Lantern Festival

For the first time in the museum's 94-year history, the Forbidden City in Beijing has been lit up, and opens free to the public at night as part of celebrations for the Lantern Festival on Tuesday, February 19, 2019. Strings of lanterns decorate the ancient buildings and a light show illuminates the sky, as visitors capture photos of the dazzling spectacle. [Photo: VCG]
