The Christmas season is around the corner and New Taipei City is getting ready to present Taiwan’s biggest light show ever.
New Taipei City’s Christmasland opens on November 16. This year’s events include a Christmas market, fair, pop concerts and the biggest light show over. Santa Galaxy is this year’s theme and the fantastic light show can be seen on the New Taipei City Hall. It will feature the largest 3D light show in Taiwan. The festive area will be surrounded by rose gold colored lights, Christmas shopping booths, and great places to take pictures. Children can also enjoy riding the Milky Way Express Train and mini UFOs.
Tourism Bureau Director Chen Kuo June says the Santa Galaxy has a psychedelic planet that has interactive art. Chen says the light show art is bound to start a new trend. The 10,000 ping park will be full of Christmas lights, cartoon characters and photo areas for the whole family to enjoy.
There will be a children’s carnival on December 1 and 2 and a pop concert on December 15 and 16. Beginning Nov. 16 from January 1, visitors can go and check out Santa’s Galaxy at New Taipei City’s Christmasland. [FULL STORY]
