Today is the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar,
Folk folklore is known as the day of "dragon head up".
In the north
"Dragon Rising Day" is also known as "Spring Dragon Festival"
When spring returns to the earth, everything recovers
Dormant insects, snakes and beasts awoke from hibernation
The legendary dragon will also raise its head and ascend to heaven on this day
As the saying goes, "The dragon doesn't look up, it doesn't rain"
The ancients believed that dragons were not only auspicious things

The people of Chang'an will be on this day
Groups of three or five went to the outskirts
Some women also carry baskets and shovels
Go dig up tender cabbage to accompany the food
