Dear Anna,
I'm very happy to get your e-mail. There are many Chinese festivals and my favourite one is Lantern （灯笼） Festival.
The Lantern Festival is an important festival in China. It falls on the 15th day of the first lunar （阴历的） month and it marks the end of the Spring Festival celebrations.
People celebrate （庆祝） the festival in many ways. The lantern show is the most important part of the festival. On the Eve of the festival, may lanterns are hung in the streets and parks. People often go out and watch the lantern show with family or friends.
Lantern riddle （灯谜） games are also popular. People write riddles on colourful lanterns. If someone gets the right answer, he or she will get a nice little gift.
Tangyuan is the traditional food of the Lantern Festival. The shape of tangyuan indicates family reunion. People enjoy themselves during the Lantern Festival.
Yours,
Chen Yan
