It's a Buddhist Celebration. Supposedly, the souls of ancestors return to this world once a year at this time, the Bon Festivals last a number of days and the lantern part of the festival is about sending messages to your loved ones at a time when they can actually receive them because they are present...

oh! I loved these lanterns. They are so well designed and beautiful. Once I had been to Japan during Bon Festival and bought few different designed lanterns for my home.

I love the first one - the point of light in the clouds (moon) is just gorgeous.
