On February 28, a workshop on making pressed flower lanterns was held.  People used pressed plants—including roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits—as the main decorative elements.

The plants underwent a process of dehydration, color preservation, pressing, and drying to create flat materials for crafting. 

Participants embraced their creativity, resulting in a variety of unique and beautifully designed lanterns, blending natural beauty with cultural heritage.
