The origin of the Lantern Festival
Fifteenth day of the first lunar month in 180 BC
Emperor Wen of Han ascended the throne and pardoned the world
After that, every fifteenth of January
The emperor had to go out of the palace to play
Shine brightly and enjoy with the people
Unlike other traditional festivals that emphasize "family reunion"
The Lantern Festival emphasizes "universal celebration"
On the night of the Lantern Festival, the streets and alleys are full of lights
People admire the lanterns and guess the riddles
The celebration will continue from Chinese New Year's Eve
Push to another climax
Since then, it has become a custom that has been passed down from generation to generation
On this day, people get together
Send flower lanterns and enjoy the bright moon
Guess the riddle of the lamp, taste the Lantern
Lantern Festival
Since ancient times, there have been warm and festive customs
Customs of the Lantern Festival
Enjoy the bright moon
The round moon rises slowly, and the pearls are round and dreamlike, as if spreading blessings to the world.
Pin Lantern
The Lantern was originally called "Floating Yuanzi", later called "Lantern", and the businessman called it "Yuanbao", which has the meaning of reunion and happiness. Although there are differences between the Lantern Festival and Tangyuan in the region, they all represent reunion and beauty.
Send flower lights
Sending flower lanterns is also called "sending children's lamps", in order to add Ding Jizhao, because "lamps" and "Ding" are harmonious, auspicious stars are high, and takako is born early.
Guess the riddle
"Guess the riddle" is also called "riddle". Every fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the traditional folk hang lanterns and set off fireworks, and later some people write riddles on a note and paste them on colorful lanterns for people to guess, adding to the festive atmosphere.
Besides
It is also a very romantic festival
Romantic "Chinese Valentine's Day"
In ancient times, the Lantern Festival also provided an opportunity for unmarried men and women to meet each other. Ancient Chinese women usually do not leave the boudoir in three steps, but the Lantern Festival can break the ban on this day, and unmarried women who usually "do not go out of the door and do not step through the second door" have the opportunity to go out of the house, and also have more opportunities to meet with lovers. This also makes the festival full of romantic colors, associated with love.
In the poetry of the ages
There are also many psalms borrowed
Lantern Festival, Full Moon Night
Expressing affection and longing
On the first night
(Tang) Cui Liquid
Jade leak copper pot and Mo urge,
The iron locks open all night.
Whoever sees the moon can sit idly,
Where does the smell of the lights not look?
Fifteen nights to watch the lights
(Tang) Lu Zhaolin
Jinli opened a feast, Lan Hongyan's early years.
The colors are far apart, and the light is far away.
The stars of Han doubt fell, and the building seemed to hang like a moon.
Don't have a thousand golden smiles, come to reflect the front of the nine branches.
Birth Chazi New Year's Eve
(Song) Ouyang Xiu
On New Year's Eve last year, the flower market was lit up like day.
The moon is on the willow tip, and the person is about after dusk.
On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and lights are still there.
Not seeing last year's people, tears wet spring shirt sleeves.
