OK...finally on their website...tix sold at $10! http://www.lanternfestival.ca
So I went there last Saturday, not bad. Lantern is nice. There are quite a few (we walked for 1.5 hours), with some giantic ones.
But the only thing is, the music sux...I 'm NOT a fan of Chinese oldies song...like those "mountain song"..."northern opera" type song... >_<
Richmond developer Townline bought the property at No. 5 Road and Steveston Highway in Richmond last year from the late Tan Yu's company for an undisclosed sum.
Townline president Rick Ilich announced on Tuesday his plans to redevelop the Fantasy Gardens site with a mix of retail and residential development.
i drive by there all the time... it is pleasant to see that people are not THAT stupid to pay $25 admission fee... the parking lot is always empty except for few cars (staff cars maybe?)
