The Lantern Festival is one of China's traditional festivals， usually celebrated on the 15th day of the first lunar month. On this day， families decorate their homes with a variety of lanterns. Yuanxiao， made from glutinous rice， is the representative food of the festival， symbolizing reunion and happiness. The fillings are also very diverse， including sesame， red bean paste， and meat fillings. In the evening of the festival， many places hold Lantern Festival fairs where people enjoy lantern displays， watch dragon and lion dances， and guess lantern riddles， making it a very lively event.
