An immersive experience, a lively temple fair, and a dazzling light show, on February 3rd, at Madame Lindo Park in the northeastern Brazilian city of Recife, three activities set off the festive atmosphere of the Dragon Year and Spring Festival. This is the second Chinese New Year event since the Chinese Spring Festival became the official festival of the city of Recife, and the Chinese Spring Festival has once again met the Brazilian people as scheduled. In the immersive experience hall, the audience sitting around quietly gazes at flowing scenes, as if embarking on a leisurely journey in China; A group of Brazilian children ran against the backdrop of China's magnificent rivers and mountains, into the mountains, into the city, and the scenery of China also entered their minds. 12-year-old Lucas danced to the rhythm of the music in the picture, and his father Silvano urged him several times but refused to leave. Silvano is a lawyer who accidentally saw news about the Chinese New Year celebration online and brought his child here. He told reporters, "Both my child and I have been exposed to Chinese culture for the first time, but having the first time makes me want to learn more." On February 3rd, in Recife, Brazil, actors performed Chinese characteristic dances during the Chinese New Year celebration. Xinhua News Agency reporter Wang Tiancong photographed that the activities in the temple fair area mainly consist of three parts: opening archaeological blind boxes, making dragon heads, and practicing calligraphy. There is a long queue in front of each activity booth. Inside the archaeological blind box, there are various Chinese porcelain pieces. The faucet made of colored paper is a headdress that can be worn on the head, while calligraphy practice involves writing on the fan surface and obtaining this unique fan. Barbosa, wearing a freshly made dragon head headdress, is a student at the School of International Relations at the Federal University of Pernambuco. He said he has developed a love for China and Chinese culture through studying international relations. His hometown is Abreu Lima, another city in the state of Pernambuco. He had previously heard of a Chinese Spring Festival celebration in the capital city of Recife. Now that he is studying here, he can finally participate in the event. "After experiencing it myself, I have become more fond of Chinese culture and hope that the knowledge I have learned can also contribute to the relationship between Brazil and China." Barbosa said, "In the future, there will be activities related to China, and I hope to become a volunteer too!" As night falls, a light show unfolds. A golden dragon light show rises on the exterior wall of the Louise Mendoza Theater in the park, followed by the Dragon Year New Year dolls and the 24 solar terms. Afterwards, on the stage of the theater, actors from the S ã o Paulo Tangyun Art Troupe bring Chinese characteristic dances.
