Watching dragon and lion dances, guessing lantern riddles and eating tangyuan (glutinous rice balls) are a few of the most popular activities across China during the Lantern Festival (the fifteenth day of the first month in the Chinese lunar calendar).

As this year's Lantern Festival is merely one day away, the city of Wuxi has prepared a wide range of activities for locals. Millions of lanterns will be lit from 6 pm to 10 pm in Huishan ancient town from Feb 9-14. Additional activities will include Chinese acrobatics, a traditional costume parade and more. Come to Wuxi to spend the LanternFestival!
