Happy Lantern Festival to all Tongji Alumni in Singapore! As we celebrate this beautiful festival, let's embrace the traditions that make it so special. The Lantern Festival, also known as 元宵节 (Yuánxiāo Jié), marks the end of the Chinese New Year celebrations and is a time for family reunions, bright lanterns, and delicious tangyuan (glutinous rice balls). One of the most intriguing traditions of the Lantern Festival is 猜灯谜 (cāi dēngmí), or guessing lantern riddles. This activity dates back to the Song Dynasty and involves solving riddles written on paper and attached to colorful lanterns. It's a fun and educational way to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the Chinese language. You may comment with the answers of lantern riddles! #lanternfestival
