ZIGONG, Jan. 27 (Xinhua) -- The city of Zigong is well known for the large number of dinosaur fossils that have been unearthed in past decades.
Lantern shows in Zigong can be traced back to the Tang (618-907) and Song (960-1279) dynasties, which have developed into an international cultural activity with performances and night markets since 1987.
The 30th International Dinosaur Lantern Show, featuring high-tech installations such as artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) devices, will kick off here on Feb. 2 this year to celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year.
