Sydney Lights Up For Chinese New Year Celebrations 2019

in #australia6 years ago (edited)

Hi Everyone,

Chinese New Year is in a few days and celebrations are in progress around Sydney. This weekend though to next week, there will be many events around the city to celebrate CNY. Tonight, we were out at Circular Quay and there were so many people enjoying the various lights around the area.

Since having the kids, I haven’t been to the city at night so it was great to show the kids what it looks. To be honest it was too crowded tonight due to this special week but the kids had a great time. Just standing there looking at the Harbour Bridge and Opera House made me realise once again we are very lucky to see these beautiful landmarks all the time.

We then walked over to The Rocks Markets where they also have special celebrations for the CNY. Stores are lined up selling different goodies and lots of locals and tourists are out to explore. What a great start to the weekend and hope you all have a great one as well!

I remember celebrating CNY in Sydney a few years back and being at China Town makes it easier. The festive mood and the sight of Chinese food made the days go easier since I was there for work
