What are the names of Lantern Festival lanterns?
Lantern Festival lanterns include performance lanterns, such as dragon lanterns, lion lanterns, lanterns, carp lanterns and clam shell lanterns. Ornamental lanterns, such as Su Lantern, Taigu Lantern, Yangzhou Melon Lantern, Foshan Pomelo Lantern and Palace Lantern, are exquisite and beautiful.
The custom of burning lanterns in the Lantern Festival began in the Han Dynasty, and in the Tang Dynasty, the activities of enjoying lanterns became more prosperous. Lights are hung everywhere in palaces and streets, and tall lantern wheels, towers and trees are built. In Buddhism, on the fifteenth day of the first month, monks watched the relics and lit lamps to worship the Buddha, so they ordered that on this night, they lit lamps to worship the Buddha in palaces and temples, so that all the gentry and the people could hang lights. Later, this Buddhist ceremonial festival gradually formed a grand folk festival. This festival has experienced the development process from the court to the people, and from the Central Plains to the whole country.
