A visual feast lights up on the riverfront area in Yangpu.
With the Green Hill rippling and stars twinkling in a projection of light and shadow, Yangpu District started its shows on Sunday night for the 2024 Shanghai International Light Festival.
A vibrant light show and drone performance were staged. The old power plant chimney was transformed into a cute giraffe and classic scenes from "Journey to the West" were replicated, wowing visitors from home and abroad.

DIY public interactive co-creations, seven light shows, and six major light and shadow art installations are planned.
Along the riverfront area, visitors can admire the "Eternal 18th" light and shadow art installation, immerse themselves in the dreamy beauty of the "Light and Shadow Forest," check out the "Light Tower," "Star Energy Station," "Spark of Stars," and other art installations, and light up the "I Light YP" art installation.
There are also three unique floats people can interact with.

The "Big Fish" is a steampunk-style airplane made from construction waste materials, while "Sweet Big Monster King" enlarges the classic candy ball machine into an interactive installation, conveying a sense of happiness.
