Chinese New Year is about a week away. Chinatown is bustling with people especially at night. I love the pretty lights at night.

@Daroru: thanks daroru! glad you found it interesting! =)
Great shot! The lights look really magical!
And I like that you can only see the "sea of black hair" below...quite a contrast to the vibrancy of the neon of the lights.

Greetings from Singapore to Czech!
Great shot! I don't like crowds either, but this shot really captures the festive atmosphere.
