- Lantern Festival is called Yuan Xiao Jie meaning Yuan Xiao Festival (元宵節) in Chinese. It falls on the 15th day of the 1st month on the Lunar Calendar and this year it’s on February 19th, 2019.
The Lantern Festival officially marks the last day of the Lunar New Year celebration. And just like the New Year, it is one of the most celebrated holidays across Asia.
In this video, I will talk about the origin of the Lantern Festival and list out some traditions you (probably) have never heard of about the Lantern Festival.

Thank you ! The videos you make are my only source for ancient Chinese fashion (other than c dramas) and one of the few sources I have to watch things about Chinese history ! I'm not Asian myself but I'm in love with Asian history (and history in general tbh ) so I really enjoy your videos !
Thank you so much Ally for bringing the chinese tradition back with these videos 🙏🏼
"Buddhism" always blessed and flourish Chinese culture
Thank you for that riddle! I missed one because it wasn’t said if we could reuse letters, although that country crossed my mind! It was fun to solve!
I have always been mesmerized by Chinese lanterns! Thank you for sharing!
I think you did a great job by sharing your videos. Always interested in Chinese culture and history. Thank you very much. Entertaining.
Please do more videos about festivals :)
sweet voice and amazing history！
I love your videos Ally
Thank you for this wonderful lesson! 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Can you go over the different time periods of the traditional clothing
Your videos are so helpful! Can I ask a question... What do you think about westerners wearing hanfu?
I think it's great when people appreciate the culture, no matter who they are. Don't let racist comments put you off. People are too sensitive nowadays.
@@FiveThousandYears That's great to hear! Thank you for your thoughtful reply. 😊❤️
@@FiveThousandYears It's a strange world in politics when flipping thousand year old population structures (of a certain color) upside down gets hailed as tolerance, while mere shoutouts (usually by ppl of that same color) to any outside culture is seen as "microaggressive" appropriations. Just chew on that word for a while and consider which trend consists the more significant appropriation.
Granted, not all SJWs are quite this simplistic, but the fact that we're even living through this twisted debate... For all who oppose aggression, consider how for example people of some nationalities are up to 40 times more sex-crime prone than Finns, in Finland. It's the real life trope we're living through in this part of the world and one notch more problematic than having to answer questions about your ethnic origin. In the immortal words of Hitchens: where are your priorities ladies and gentlemen?

Thank you for making this video. I have enjoyed all of your videos and look forward to many more.
I’ve heard that the Lantern Festival was also the Chinese equivalent of our St. Valentine’s Day. You didn’t mention this in your video, so I’m wondering if this is correct. Please enlighten me.
Thanks!
Chinese Valentine's day is on 7/7/every year ! I know nothing about the lantern festival tho so I could be wrong .
Chinese Valentine's Day is on either 3/3 or 7/7 on the Lunar calendar. However the Lantern Festival is considered a romantic holiday because women get to go out and potentially meet the love of their life on this day. ;)
Five Thousand Years Thanks, Ali!😊

holy shit!! tang yuan really was invented in the tang dynasty??? i only thought the tang word in tang yuan meant the syrup/sweet soup the rice balls were soaking in! zamn
Hahaha my friend. You miss understand the words here. The "tang"s have same pronunciation but they are different in the writing system of Chinese, so they are actually different words in Chinese. The "tang" in tang yuan is written as “汤”, which means soup. The "tang" in Tang dynasty is written as “唐”, which is a specific word refer to the dynasty and also a common family name.
Actually, there are a lot of Chinese characters are pronounced as "tang", for example “糖” which means “sugar”. You may notice the right part of the word is same with "唐", and the left part is "米" which means "rice". It indicats the "sugar(糖)" has the same pronounciation as "tang(唐)", and it can be found in "rice(米)".
hahahah.. is 汤tang soup, no 唐tang dinasty
Thank you for letting people know the Chinese traditional festival. I’m so depressed to see Korean are stealing our culture these years😭😭
They really need the truth of the Bible instead of wishing and hoping for things..salvation is through Jesus Christ only..
Stop...

Inconsistent logic
diff countries have diff believes, u cant change a whole countries religion or beliefs to suit urs . im pretty sure every religious practice has a history. and don't u pray to Jesus to guide and help u? its the same thing they do.
