The Lantern Festival, regarded as the end of the Spring Festival holiday, fell on Sunday.

The expats were fascinated by the traditional Chinese snacks and folk crafts such as the Spring Festival painting.

Charlie, an English teacher at a local school, said “it is amazing to spend the Spring Festival holiday in China.” He has been in China for three years but never during the holiday.

Elena, a Russian teacher at the Shenyang Science and Technology University, had a fun ride in a Chinese bridal sedan chair.
