"On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and the lights are still there"
February 15
It is the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month
Say
"Lap 8" kicked off the Prelude to the New Year
The Lantern Festival draws a successful end to the Spring Festival
And this year's Lantern Festival
The Lantern Moon in the Year of the Tiger is not "fifteen rounds"
Nor is it "sixteen circles"
It's "seventeen circles."
The roundest moment appears
17 February, 00:56.
Statistical findings
The most frequent occurrence of the "full moon" is the sixteenth day of the lunar calendar
This is followed by the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar
Again it is the seventeenth day of the lunar calendar
The least is the fourteenth lunar calendar
When is the best night of the Lantern Festival?
Two hours after sunset is a good time to admire the moon.
One is that the moon at this time looks particularly large;
The second is that the moon is beautifully silvery-white,
Pleasing to the eye;
Third, the moon's horizon altitude is low,
Suitable for taking beautiful photos of 'continuous moon with landscape'.
The first month is the first month, and the ancients called the night "supper"
Fifteen was the first full moon night of the year
Therefore, the fifteenth day of the first month is called the Lantern Festival
May you live up to the time and the effort
People are at ease and spend a good full moon
Origin of the Lantern Festival
The Lantern Festival originated in the Han Dynasty and is said to have been set up by Emperor Wen of Han for "Pinglu".
In 180 BC, the chancellors Zhou Bo and Chen Ping swept away the Lü family's power and established Liu Heng, the Emperor wen of Han, on the throne. The day on which Emperor Wendi of Han ascended the throne was the fifteenth day of the first month, and Liu Heng heng pardoned the world and enjoyed himself with the people. In the future, every night on this day, the emperor would go out of the palace to play, put on the lights, and have fun with the people to show celebration. Because at that time, people still called the first month "January" and the night "supper", so it was called "Lantern Festival". Later, when Sima Qian founded the Taichu Calendar, he designated the Lantern Festival as a major festival.
During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the sacrifice of the "Taiyi God" was scheduled for the fifteenth day of the first month. When Sima Qian created the "Taichu Calendar", he had already identified the Lantern Festival as a major festival.

The Lantern Festival is valentine's day in Chinese
In addition to moon viewing
Lantern Festival also has a lesser-known meaning
In ancient times
The Lantern Festival is one of the few opportunities for unmarried men and women to meet each other throughout the year
It also has the characteristics of "Valentine's Day"
The Lantern Festival is valentine's day Chinese!
Just because I looked at you more at the lantern meeting
It became a lifelong concern and pursuit
This Chinese romance
It's a little bit incredible today
In fact
The Lantern Festival of the past
It has indeed made a lot of moving love stories
The Tang Dynasty kaiyuan flourished
Princess Taiping met Xue Shao on the way during the Lantern Festival micro-clothing outing
Where love arises, it goes deeper
A girl's heart immediately locked on this person...
The lyricist Xin Ren was originally a military general
Maybe it was also because of a romantic trip on a Lantern Night
Only then did he write:
The multitudes looked for him a thousand times
Looking back
But the man was in the middle of the night
The best sentence of the world...
Princess Changle of the Southern Dynasty and her husband Xu Deyan
At the time of the destruction of the country and the death of the family
They broke a bronze mirror and held half of it
As a proof of future seeing each other
The two ended up on the night of the Lantern Festival
Only the half-piece copper mirrors that I saw came together
Staged a life comedy that broke the mirror and reunited...
How Tianjin people "make a Lantern Festival"
"When the stars and moons are in the sky, there are ten thousand candles burning, and there are two lanterns in the heavens on earth." How do old Tianjin people celebrate the Lantern Festival? What customs have been preserved to this day, and which customs have gradually left us?
Cook the Lantern, fry the Lantern, and wrap the dumplings stuffed with vegetarian food
According to the customs of Tianjin people, on the fifteenth day of the first month, cook the Lantern, fry the Lantern, and wrap the dumplings stuffed with vegetarians.
In the past, tianjin's lanterns mainly consisted of two kinds: rice and sorghum. Most of the tea shops sell rice lanterns, with a variety of fillings, called "assorted lanterns". This year's Lantern Festival, many "skillful" friends have worked hard to achieve "ice pier freedom" on their own Lantern Festival.
In the old days, two days before the Lantern Festival, a mat was set up in front of the Shenglan Zhai gate in Maojia Gang Lane, and four baskets were placed in it to beat the Lantern Festival. Yi Poinsettia, Siyuanxiang, and Xiangdezhai on North Road also set up a posture to play the Lantern Festival, at that time, there was no electric tangyuan machine, and the Lantern was all based on manual rolling. There are small shops selling cooked Lanterns in Bird Market and East Road, and there is also a small shop selling fried Lanterns in Bird Market, and in those days, there were always people lining up in front of these small shops.
Fight (steam) the god of wealth
In the past, before the Tianjin Lantern Festival, it was also necessary to make steamed food such as hedgehog rats, and there were some details: the fourteenth day of the first month was done well, and the hedgehog head rushed out, which means to attract wealth; the fifteenth day of the first month hedgehog head rushed inside, meaning into the treasure. Why have hedgehogs and rats become symbols of wealth and treasure? It turned out that because such hamsters had the habit of digging holes and hiding food, the people thought that this move was a manifestation of accumulated wealth.
