Delve into its cultural connotations as we explore China's rich heritage with references to racial identity and Chinese characters reflected on lanterns in Taichung, Taiwan. The term "Mandarin" also alludes to one of China's official languages - Chinese Mandarin - symbolizing communication and linguistic prowess.
