The 2025 "Jingcai" Lantern Festival is lighting up Shijingshan Amusement Park and will run until October 31. Spanning 350,000 square meters, the event features 56 large-scale lantern installations and nearly 10,000 colorful lights, forming seven themed zones — each aglow with dazzling illumination. Inspired by a post on the BeijingService WeChat account, Yulia Ahmed from Singapore brought her camera to explore this "autumn-exclusive" visual feast.

Wandering through the park's themed lantern displays feels like stepping into multiple parallel universes, each telling its own unique visual story. "It's like traveling through time and space overnight," said Yulia Ahmed, adjusting her lens to capture a lizard with butterfly wings.
