Lantern Festival customs
Lantern Festival is a traditional festival in China since ancient times. Lantern Festival viewing began when ancient people held torches in rural fields to drive away insects and wild animals, hoping to reduce pests and pray for a bumper harvest.
To this day, people in some areas in southwest China still make torches from reeds or branches on the 15th day of the first month, hold them high in groups and dance in fields or grain drying fields. It has been in full swing since the Sui, Tang and Song Dynasties. Tens of thousands of people took part in the song and dance performances, 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.
