Spring Festival is the first traditional festival in China. In the past, the Spring Festival was called "New Year" because according to the lunar calendar that has been used in China's history, this day is the first day of the first month and the beginning of a new year.

According to records, the people of China have celebrated the Spring Festival for more than 4,000 years, which was initiated by Yu Shun. One day more than two thousand years BC, Shun became emperor and led his men to worship heaven and earth.

Since then, people have regarded this day as the beginning of a year, that is, the first day of the first month. It is said that this is the origin of the Lunar New Year, which was later called the Spring Festival.

19 1 1 After the Revolution of 1911, China adopted the Gregorian calendar, and the Lunar New Year was renamed "Spring Festival" (the Gregorian calendar lasted from the end of June to the middle of February). During the Spring Festival, every household puts up Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures to decorate their rooms.

The night before the Spring Festival is called "New Year's Eve", which is an important moment for family reunion. The whole family get together and have a big "New Year's Eve". Many people stay up late, which is the so-called "shou nian". The next day, everyone began to "pay New Year greetings" to relatives and friends, greeting each other and wishing all the best in the new year.

During the Spring Festival, lion dancing, dragon dancing, boating and walking on stilts are the most common traditional recreational activities. & gt& gt The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan Festival, Lantern Festival and Lantern Festival.

Every night, he will go out to play in the palace and play with people, and set the fifteenth day of the first month as the Lantern Festival.

Sima Qian founded the taichu calendar, which listed the Lantern Festival as a major festival. Since the Sui, Tang and Song Dynasties, it has been in full swing.

"Sui Shu Music Record" Day: "Every first month, all nations come to the DPRK and live outside the Duanmen Gate, which lasts for eight miles until the 15th." Tens of thousands of people participated in singing and dancing, from faint to dark. With the changes of society and times, the custom of Lantern Festival has changed greatly, but it is still a traditional folk festival in China.

After the Lantern Festival, there is a custom of eating Yuanxiao and watching lanterns. Yuanxiao is round, with glutinous rice flour as the skin and fruit and sugar stuffing inside, which is a symbol of "reunion".

Lantern Festival began in the first century A.D. and is still popular all over the world. On the night of the Lantern Festival, many cities will hold the Lantern Festival and display all kinds of lanterns, which are novel and varied. In rural areas, people hold recreational activities, such as setting off fireworks, walking on stilts, playing dragon lanterns, dancing yangko and swinging.

& gt& gt Zhonghe Festival is on the second day of the second lunar month, commonly known as the Dragon Head Up. At this time, before and after the shock, spring returned to the earth and everything recovered. Insects, snakes and animals that lie dormant in the soil or caves will wake up from hibernation, and the legendary dragon will also wake up from a deep sleep, hence the name "Dragon Head Up".

In ancient times, dragons were sacred symbols, so they were used to drive away pests. Smoked insects were popular in the Ming Dynasty. On February 2, people will fry the cakes left over from the New Year's Day sacrifice on the smoked bed and kang.
