Yuexiu Park, a classic venue for Guangzhou's Spring Festival celebrations, is ready for this year's lantern show.

The lanterns are made from recycled products and environmentally friendly materials. They are themed around animals, specifically Chinese Zodiac animals, which include pigs, rabbits, dragons, snakes, horses, monkeys, goats, roosters and dogs.
