It is customary in rural areas to have a wood-burning stove at home. Now we don't burn wood. Do you want to use the stove?

You don't have to stay. Now many old customs are gradually being eliminated by the times.

China has a tradition of attaching importance to customs since ancient times. "To be a politician, you must first learn the customs" and "observe the customs and know the gains and losses" are the ancestral teachings adhered to by emperors in past dynasties. The supreme ruler should not only personally ask about the customs and people's feelings, but also appoint officials to inspect the customs and people's feelings as an important reference when formulating national policies, so that historians will go down in history and leave experience in managing customs for future generations.

The traditional festivals of the Han nationality are diverse in form and rich in content, which is the formation process of a national traditional festival with a long history and culture and the long-term accumulation and cohesion of the national history and culture. The festivals listed below are all developed from ancient times. From these customs that have been passed down to this day, we can clearly see the wonderful picture of the ancient people's social life.

The origin and development of festivals is a process of gradual formation, subtle influence and gradual infiltration into social life. Like the development of society, it is the product of the development of human society to a certain stage. These festivals in ancient China were all related to the astronomy, calendar, mathematics and the solar terms divided later. This can be traced back to Zheng Xiao and Shangshu in Xia Dynasty at least in literature. By the Warring States period, the 24 solar terms in a year were basically complete, and later traditional festivals were also closely related to these solar terms.
