HKETCO participates at 2015 Taiwan Lantern Festival (5 March 2015)

The Hong Kong Economic, Trade and Cultural Office (HKETCO) participated for the second time in the Taiwan Lantern Festival, the largest of its kind in Taiwan. The Taiwan Lantern Festival was held in Taichung this year. HKETCO created a 25-metre-long Hong Kong-theme street with signboards made with neon lights, light bulbs and LEDs, presenting Hong Kong’s spectacular night street scene. Visitors could have a date with Hong Kong there.
