例文:
Dear Alex,
I’m glad to hear that you are coming to Quanzhou for the Spring Festival. Let me tell you about this amazing holiday.
During the Spring Festival, families clean their houses and have a big dinner together. In Quanzhou, there is a special folk performance called “Huoding Gongpo”. Two performers use bamboo poles to carry a burning “fire ding”. It is humorous and very popular because it means “burn away disasters and welcome good fortune”. I think you will really enjoy watching it.
All these activities and traditions share the same meanings: getting together with loved ones and wishing for good luck in the new year. They are the most beautiful part of our Spring Festival.
Looking forward to your visit! I’m sure you will have great fun here.
Yours,
Li Hua
