The Lantern Festival is celebrated on the 15th day of the first lunar month, usually in February or early March. Chinese people began to celebrate this festival more than 2,000 years ago. Ancient Chinese people put up beautiful lanterns outside their houses. That’s how the festival gets its name.
Nowadays, on the night of the festival, people usually get together for dinner and then go outside to enjoy the first full moon of the lunar year. There are many lantern shows at this festival. Like the ancient people, people not only enjoy different kinds of lanterns, but also play lantern word guessing games on this day. Children usually play outside with their beautiful lanterns. People make and eat a special kind of dessert named “tang yuan”. They are round and sweet. People also call it “sweet dumpling”.
