Dear Roger,

　　Thank you for your letter．You have said you want to know something about Chinese festivals．And now I'd like to talk about the Lantern Festival．

　　The Lantern Festival is on the fifteenth day after the Chinese lunar New Year．It can date back to the Han Dynasty．When it came into the Tang Dynasty, the festival became quite popular．In the Song Dynasty, it turned into a festival which lasted for longest time．And in the Qing Dynasty, it developed to be the largest one．

　　There are quite a lot of traditions for this day．On this festival, we Chinese often enjoy lanterns, guess riddles written on the lanterns, eating yuanxiao(a kind of rice glue ball), step on stilts and row land boats, etc．

　　As a traditional festival, it has a profound meaning in China．It is the first day when the moon is full round in the Chinese lunar calendar, and it's also the beginning of the year when spring starts．With celebrating the festival, people also celebrate the lasting of the New Year．

Lovely yours,

Wang Ming
