Lantern Festival There will also be activities such as lantern walks on the night.

Xie Xiyuan, head of Fengyu Village, who is an artist himself, said that in order to create a Lantern Festival atmosphere in the neighborhood, large-scale lanterns have also been made during the Lantern Festival in the past four years, but the "lanterns" here do not emit light, but are painted with bright colors. Instead, this year he used the simple jigsaw puzzles of retro toys to design fangzi shapes. He used wooden boards to cut 5 fangzi and assembled them to be about 160 cm in height. Kindergarten teachers, as long as the passers-by are willing to do flower arrangement and painting, they can participate, let everyone create 10 different styles of painted rabbits together, and the most special one is a person who stays at home every day and always complains that his neighbors interfere with his life Grandpa was also recruited by Xie Xiyuan to paint.
