Intricate craftsmanship in Dongyang, east China's Zhejiang Province has harnessed the community spirit of locals to prepare for a vibrant Spring Festival celebration in less than a month.
Skilled craftsmen have been seen creating the locally renowned "bench loong" lanterns, with exquisite artistry.
