[Commentary] On the eve of the Lantern Festival, a folk custom experience event called "Laowai Take You to Make the Lantern Festival" was held at the Social Worker Terminal of Anshan Economic Development Zone.

International students from Anshan Normal University brought their families and friends to the Letao Community Kitchen to cook Lantern Festival, learn seal cutting, write calligraphy, and assemble lanterns.

  [Explanation] Kacha from Russia took her daughter to participate in the cultural experience of the Lantern Festival. Kacha said that she likes sweet glutinous rice balls, while the child became interested in Chinese calligraphy and collected rice paper covered with Chinese seals.

  To have a deeper understanding of a culture of the Lantern Festival, I also brought my daughter to participate today.

I experienced calligraphy and delicious food during the Lantern Festival. I am very happy to participate in this event today.

  [Explanation] Li Nuo from Nigeria, led by volunteers, assembled the red lanterns.

Li Nuo thinks that Chinese lanterns are very magical, and there are rotating lights in the lanterns. He is full of praise for such "technical" lanterns that existed in China hundreds of years ago.

  The teacher told us what this lamp meant, and then he showed us his things, how to install each place, and how to install it well.

I learned something very, very interesting.

  [Commentary] In the evening, the international students went out of the community and went to the park with the local citizens to watch the lanterns and feel the unique festivities of the Lantern Festival.

  I came to this place with many people, very lively and very happy!

I hope to come to this place in the future and play casually.

Now I wish everyone a happy Lantern Festival!
