Lantern Festival
The Lantern Festival, celebrated on the 15th day of the first lunar month, marks the official end of the Spring Festival celebrations. As a traditional festival full of joy and warmth, it embodies people's aspirations for brightness, peace and good luck. On this day, families gather to admire various exquisite and colorful lanterns displayed in streets and parks, participate in lively lantern riddle guessing games, and eat tangyuan—glutinous rice balls stuffed with sweet fillings. The round shape of tangyuan symbolizes family unity and completeness, making the festival a perfect conclusion to the Spring Festival holiday.
