💝Happy Valentine’s Day of the East! 東方情人節快樂！
Lantern Festival, so called Valentine’s Day of the East, is tomorrow! It is celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the Lunar calendar, during the full moon.
Long time ago, on the land of now China, all people were prohibited to go out, but at Lantern Festival, everyone was allowed to hang around. For young and unmarried people, the festival is an excellent opportunity to meet others.
During the festival, people go out at night carrying paper lanterns and solve riddles on the lanterns. Small glutinous rice balls 'yuan xiao' or 'tang yuan' is a traditional dish of Lantern Festival. The round shape of the balls symbolizes wholeness and unity within the family.
聽日農曆正月十五係元宵節，呢日係農曆新年嘅第一個月圓之夜，青年男女會外出觀燈並趁機結識、相會，所以元宵節有「東方情人節」嘅別稱。大家都會賞花燈、猜燈謎同埋食湯圓去慶祝。湯圓讀音同「團圓」相近，象徵「團圓、圓滿」。
