As the Year of Dragon is ushered in, Shilin county seat in the southeast of Kunming has been in the scene of endless festive jubilance. Strolling on the streets, people are greeted by banners whose captions signal "Happy Spring Festival". And red lanterns and Chinese knots are ubiquitous, kids are firing crackers here and there, cultural show is staged on fairground, and assorted local snacks wait to be tasted…What a festive atmosphere!
