The English version of the Lantern Festival handwritten newspaper: 1 Lantern Festival is on the fifth day of the lunar calendar 1 month, usually in February or March of the solar calendar. As early as the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-25 AD), it has become a festival of great significance. The important activity of this day is watching lanterns. Throughout the Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD), Buddhism prevailed in China. An emperor heard that Buddhist monks would watch the relics (the remains of Buddha's body after cremation) and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the fifth day of the sixth lunar month (1), so he ordered lanterns to be lit in palaces and temples on this day to show his respect for Buddha. Later, the Buddhist ceremony developed into a grand festival for ordinary people, and its influence expanded from the Central Plains to the whole of China.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, just after the Spring Festival, the traditional festival Lantern Festival in China was ushered in. The main activity of the Lantern Festival is watching lights. During the reign of Emperor Han Ming, Ming Di advocated Buddhism. According to legend, on the fifteenth day of the first month, the monks watched the relics and lit lamps to worship Buddha, so they ordered the palaces and temples to light lamps to worship Buddha that night, so that all the gentry and ordinary people could hang lamps. Later, this Buddhist ceremonial festival gradually formed a grand folk festival. This festival has experienced the development process from the court to the people, and from the Central Plains to the whole country.

Children will wander around the street with homemade or bought lanterns, very excited. Solve riddles on the lanterns is an important part of this festival. The owner of the lantern writes the riddle on a piece of paper and then sticks it on the lantern. If tourists have answers to riddles, they can take out the paper and go to the owner of the lantern to check their answers. If they are right, they will get a small gift.
