The 15th day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, a traditional Chinese festival. The first month is the first month, and the ancients called the night "xiao", and the fifteenth is the first full moon night of the year, so the fifteenth of the first month is called the Lantern Festival. Also known as "Shangyuan Festival". According to Chinese folk traditions, on the festive night of the renewal of the first yuan and the rejuvenation of the earth, the sky and the moon are high, and there are thousands of colored lanterns on the ground. People watch lanterns, guess lantern riddles, eat Lantern Festival and have a family reunion.
However, the traditional custom of our hometown is to eat Lantern Festival and send lanterns. In recent years, we have used finished candle lanterns. When the night comes, every family has to steam a pot of lanterns and steamed dumplings. The lanterns are placed on both sides of each door. Adults and children should use lanterns to illuminate their eyes, ears, and noses, which means peace, health, and good health throughout the year! "
