'Giant bugs' light show dazzles Belgium's zoo | Pics

Pictures from Belgium's Planckendael Zoo are mesmerising people as the annual 'China Light ZOO' light show - a spectacular festival of lights -- is going on. This time, based on the theme of insectivores, the ‘giant bugs’ festival which started on December 2 will go on till January 15. The adventurous trip takes one through an illuminated towering spider to a bee hive, the hungry venus flytraps, and much more. The China Light Zoo organisation which curates these events is known for its themed lantern exhibitions. The company is a European subsidiary of an international event design company based in China.
