What is the Lantern Festival also called?The Lantern Festival, also known as the Shangyuan Festival, the Little New Year, the Lantern Festival or the Lantern Festival, is held on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year. It is the last important festival in the Chinese New Year customs.In ancient Chinese customs, the Shangyuan Festival (Tianguan Festival), the Zhongyuan Festival (Diguan Festival, Yulan Festival), and the Xiayuan Festival (Shuiguan Festival) are collectively known as the Three Yuans. The formation of the Lantern Festival customs took a long process. According to general information and folk legends, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was already taken seriously in the Western Han Dynasty. The activity of Emperor Wu of Han worshipping "Taiyi" in Ganquan Palace on the first night of the first lunar month was regarded by later generations as a precursor to the worship of gods on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. However, the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month truly became a folk festival after the Han and Wei dynasties. The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the first full-moon night of the year. It is also the night when a new year begins and the earth returns to spring. People celebrate this night, which is also a continuation of the celebration of the New Year. Sima Qian created the Taichu Calendar and listed the Lantern Festival as a major festival. It flourished during the Sui, Tang and Song dynasties. "Book of Sui·Music" states: "Every first month, all nations came to pay tribute, and they would stay until the 15th day in a theater outside Duanmen and inside Jianguomen, which stretched for eight miles, with plays set up as the theater stage." There were tens of thousands of people participating in the singing and dancing, from dusk to dawn, and ending at the end of the day. With the changes of society and times, the customs and habits of the Lantern Festival have undergone great changes, but it is still a traditional Chinese folk festival. |
