Besides this, lantern is the leading actor on this day. China has a lot of traditional festival with Lantern Festival being my favorite,because i can see the lantern show and the fireworks display on a same day,which create a fantastic night just like a dream world.More over,walking through the lantern display on the city wall in our city center would be an excellent experience.
Lanterns reminds me of some very common and tinny but really warm things ,which are sweet memories in my early childhood.Such as my brother and I would made a little special orange(?) lantern every year during the new year celebration,then took them to visit our older cousins in evening and surprised them.This is the part I love the most at that time,and light sparkles and set off fireworks are the parts I love as well.
