River Hong Bao 2014 (春到河畔2014)

Every lunar new year, there will be temporary CNY event - River Hong Bao at the floating platform. It is a yearly must go place during CNY for us. :) Besides Chinatown, this is the next best place to bask into the lunar new year mood.

The River Hong Bao is on from 29th Jan to 8th Feb at The Float @ Marina Bay.

Huge auspicious lanterns are on display making the place vibrantly auspicious and chinese new yearly. Also the twelve zodiac readings are available. Food street selling snacks and drinks are available for the hungry. Kids would love the fun fair rides and games by Uncle Ringo. There are stage performances on certain nights too. You can check out the schedule via the River Hong Bao website.

The fortune gods will 'snow' lucky numbers at certain timings.

It was really crowded when we went last Sunday. One of the nearest carpark at Marina Square was so packed! Many cars were waiting for lots. Go early if you can.

I personally think this should be extended till end of the lunar new year so that more people can go and the crowd can be spreaded out over two weekends! Such a joyous place and money spent to do it up, don't waste!
