The lantern is a traditional Chinese handicraft that symbolizes reunion. On Sept 20, students from several primary schools in Chongchuan district, Nantong, East China's Jiangsu province, tried their hands at making lanterns at the Nantong Ikea Store, which is located in the Gangzha Economic Development Zone, to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
