CHINESE NEW YEAR FESTIVAL 2013 part 1

From 19.January to 9.February 2013 the Chinese New Year Festival (in short CNY Festival) was held in Chinatown-Singapore. A midst the many traditional Stall Erich's Wuerstelstand was again,for the 9th time in history a magnet for reveelers who dived into the festive atmosphare in this historical part of Singapore.
The grand light up ceremony was concluded with a splendid fireworks display above the heads of the 10 of thousands who floked here to join in the celebration.
The year of the Snake is very auspicious and need a lot of water- hence it rained for the greater part of the festival,but it could not dampen the festive mood.
