What is Lantern Festival

The Lantern Festival is a traditional Chinese festival, which has existed as early as the Qin Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago. Buddhism was introduced to China in the Eastern Han Dynasty. In order to expand its influence in the local area, Buddhism gradually attached itself to traditional culture and designated the Lantern Festival as an auspicious day for visiting Buddha. According to historical records and folk legends, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was already taken seriously in the Western Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of Han held a ceremony to offer sacrifices to "Taiyi" (Taiyi: the god who dominates everything in the universe) in Ganquan Palace on the first night of the first lunar month, which was regarded by later generations as a precursor to the worship of gods in heaven on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
