B
The Lantern Festival, also known as Yuanxiao Festival, is a Chinese festival with a long history. It falls on the fifteenth day of the first month of the Chinese lunar calendar. How do you usually celebrate it? Some of you might go to the Yuyuan Garden Lantern Fair in Shanghai. In 2025, the Nine-Turn Bridge was lined with lanterns of the dragon and its animal friends. It was crowded with people. Everyone wanted to take pictures.
Do you know how these colourful lanterns are made? He Weifu has the answer. He is a skilled lantern maker in Shanghai. To make a lantern, he first straightens some iron wires (铁丝) and covers them with coloured paper. Then, he uses them to make the skeleton (骨架) for an animal lantern. This, according to He, is the most difficult step. He often spends a long time studying the animal. After making the skeleton, he puts paste (糨糊) on silk cloth to stiffen (使变得硬挺) it. The last step is to glue the cloth on the skeleton and draw patterns.
His family has been making lanterns for 100 years. His grandfather, He Keming, was the “King of Lanterns” in the Jiangnan area. He started making lanterns at the age of 13. One day, he went to see a Lantern Festival show. A dragon lantern caught the boy's eye. He looked at it carefully and tried to make one for himself. He practiced this craft all his life. His lanterns were very popular. Some of them were given as national gifts to visitors from other countries.
Which lantern at 2025's Yuyuan Garden Lantern Fair do you like the best? While you look at it next time, why not try to learn more about the craft of lantern making? Think about how you can help to keep this cultural heritage alive.
