Hey, mom.
We are
enjoying our Chinese New Year!
And there is another festival called lantern
festival several days later.
As the name says, it is a festival about latern.
In ancient China, people do not have lamps,instead,they put candles in
colourful lanterns, so it looks shiny and beautiful at night. But nowadays,
most lanterns are lighted by lamps, which are much more pretty.
We heard
from the news that there will be an exhibition near the Jingji lake,so today we
take a bus there.
It was in
the morning, so we could not see any light, but we can still enjoy the huge
lanterns.
I love this
blue lantern because it is consisted by thousands of china spoons and bowls. I
think it is really amazing! But Luna said she likes the dragon one better, i
think it's not bad:)
We enjoyed
the beautiful scenes around the lake and then we visited a church nearby. It was
built a few months ago, so it looks pretty new!
It was a
nice day:)
Love,
Stella&Luna
