Tourist attractions across the city will host a number of activities during the upcoming Spring Festival with the city's tourism authorities reminding tourists to keep good order and avoid pushing and squeezing ahead when among a crowd of people.

Shanghai Ocean Aquarium in the Pudong New Area has introduced several sheepsheads from Florida for display during the festival to mark the Year of the Sheep. It’s the first time the species will be exhibited in Asia. The saltwater fish has a hard mouth with several rows of stubby teeth, which look similar to human teeth. The teeth help the fish crush the shells of prey.

Shanghai Zoo will host exhibitions related to sheep and visitors will be able to win gifts by participating in games such as looking for certain species of sheep around the zoo and answering riddles hidden in lanterns. Various species of sheep like thars and bharals will be on display at the zoo during the festival.
