Impressions of Zigong Lantern Festival

I've always wanted to go to Zigong to see the lantern festival and finally set off today. The city roads are quite clean as soon as I get off the highway, the first impression is good. Let's talk about the lantern festival. There are just too many people. When I arrived at the main entrance of the lantern festival, they started to control the crowd. There were queues for security checks, ticket checks. I thought this was what it felt like to have a lot of people, but I was wrong. The real crowd was after the ticket check and entering the lantern festival. After entering, they also controlled the crowd, releasing a wave of people every 5-10 minutes. Then it was like the situation in the second and third pictures. You can only follow the crowd and move forward, and you have to take pictures quickly with your phone, otherwise the people behind you will push you forward. I entered at 6 o'clock and came out at 9:30, it was all people. Here are a few points to summarize: 1. Don't drive or take a taxi there, it probably takes more than 30 minutes to queue up to enter the parking lot. Choosing the lantern festival line is the fastest and most convenient. 2. It is not recommended to go in too early (the lantern festival ends at 24:00). The lights don't look as beautiful before it gets dark. And there are super many people before 6-8 pm. When I came out after 9 pm, there were a lot fewer people, and there was no need to queue up to enter the park. 3. There is food inside, and the prices of most things are reasonable.
