From the street to the alley, lanterns are hung everywhere, which is very lively. In traditional folk customs, Lantern Festival is not only about enjoying the moon at home, lighting thousands of lanterns, eating Yuanxiao and solving riddles on lanterns, but also performing traditional folk performances, such as playing dragon lanterns or dancing lions.
