I also visited Chaoyang Park — not a "temple fair" in the real sense but promoted as an "International Spring Carnival". It developed due to its locality, being home to a sizeable community of long-term foreign residents and location for most of the city’s embassies. International music and cultural events are performed both on stage and amongst the crowd. In 2013 Ireland was the ”Country of Honor” through the weeklong festival. Performances included traditional jig dancing, folk music and street theater. I was there for the duration!
