Seoul Lantern Festival

The last night that Robin's parents were here, we went to the Seoul Lantern Festival. I don't think that any of us knew exactly what the lantern festival was all about, but it was absolutely amazing. There is a man made river, which was made to make the area look a little nicer, and all down the river were these beautiful lanterns, all shapes and sizes. This post is going to be short, just because the pictures do most of the talking.


One thing to mention is how efficient they were at corralling people in and out, they had people who looked like they were directing landing airplanes with flashing lights in their hands yelling at people and telling them to move through. There were times when we had to take pictures on the run. However for a city with 10 million people and others from around the country, they have to keep them moving through. 




Below is a video of some of the lanterns and the music that went with it.
