元宵夜觀花燈的習俗開始於兩千多年前的西知漢時期。

The traditions of viewing decorative lanterns on this night began more than two thousand years ago in the Western Han Dynasty.

Falling on the 15th day of the first lunar month, Lantern Festival is the first significant feast after Chinese New Year, so called because the most important activity during the night of the event is watching various wonderful Chinese lanterns.

元宵節是農曆正月十五，它是春節之後第一個重要的節日，（英文）之所以這樣稱呼是因為當晚最重要的活動是觀賞各種各樣美麗的燈籠。
