The streets were lined with lanterns hung with cards upon which citizens wrote their wishes. The main lantern, the Millenium Gold Dragon, was positioned at Chiang Kai-shek Memorial, and beyond the walls enclosing its grounds were lanterns in the shape of Hello Kitty, a woman's face, the eight immortals crossing the seas, and so forth-a delicious mix of new and old.
周邊街道上，一盞盞龍燈下，掛滿民眾們的許願卡；中正紀念堂的中心高高聳立著「千禧金龍」的主燈；雲牆外，巨大的母親臉孔、凱蒂貓、八仙過海、龍宮驚豔等花燈，引人穿梭古今。
