Ramadan Lanterns in Egypt
Ramadan is a period of daytime fasting for Muslims. It's also a time when the night comes alive in many places, with families getting together to do other things too. In Egypt they have a tradition of decorating homes and streets with lanterns - called Fanous. Nada Rashwan of 大象传媒 Monitoring shares the festive celebrations.
