Britain's iconic London Eye shone in radiant gold and red on Tuesday evening (Jan. 28), the eve of Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year, to welcome the arrival of the Year of the Snake.

The dazzling display lit up London's skyline, drawing a large crowd of locals and tourists to the South Bank of the River Thames, under a signature London drizzle.
