Baguashan Great Buddha is a renowned scenic spot in Changhua County, as well as the spiritual symbol of residents in the county. After earning high acclaim with the first lantern festival in 2020, Baguashan is going to hold another Moon, Shadow, and Lantern Festival in 2021. Tortured by the epidemic, pretending to travel abroad has become the first choice of people. In this festival, exotic themes, such as Japanese and Arabic scenes, are included in the Chinese setting. The glamorous decorations and lanterns of other cultures symbolize the blessing ceremonies in different parts of the world. Visiting Baguashan lantern and prayer zone, people can pretend to travel abroad in the post-epidemic era. Visitors can also collect color papers at Baguashan Great Buddha Scenic Area Tourist Information Center to fold and hang origamis on the racks to symbolize their prayers. Hammering the bell to pray for happiness, visitors may bid the chaotic 2020 farewell and welcome a better New Year together.
The 2021 Changhua Moon, Shadow, and Lantern Festival is going to start at 7:00 pm on December 18, 2020 in collaboration with the Christmas Light Lighting Activity sponsored by Changhua County Government. The lantern festival will be held from December 18, 2020 to March 1, 2021 from 5:30 pm to 10:00 pm every night. There will be Chinese, Japanese, and Arabic themes in the park, guiding visitors to travel to exotic countries. You are welcome to visit Changhua at the end of the year, pretend to travel abroad and enjoy the magnificent mountain landscapes.
