The custom of celebrating the Spring Festival in Guilin

Lin's Spring Festival custom should also start from Guilin people's New Year's Eve, that is, Chinese New Year. On New Year's Day, people kill dogs and ducks to celebrate the Spring Festival. The firecrackers on this day, with people's wish to send a good word to Kitchen God, crackled to Gao Yu. People think that the Kitchen God is the head of the family, in charge of good and evil, good and bad, good and bad, so every year, the Kitchen God should be sent to heaven to explain to the Jade Emperor, so as to save the whole family from disaster.

After the Lunar New Year's Eve, people can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. On the eve of Chinese New Year's Eve, people call it "New Year's Eve". Before dinner, the whole family should take the time to do a good job in environmental sanitation, take a bath, wash clothes and greet the New Year cleanly. The water tank should be filled with water and the rice tank should be filled with grain. The New Year's Eve dinner starts at four o'clock in the afternoon, which means "All the best". Eating at a round table means "round and round".

The lion's New Year greeting is a traditional project loved by Guilin people. Therefore, on the eve of the Spring Festival, lions will dress up as lions and practice traditional lion dance routines. When the Spring Festival comes, lions dance in the street to pay New Year greetings to people or shops. The lion danced wildly, jumping, rushing, howling, stepping, jumping and so on. Big-head monk dance Dance, which plays the lion, twisted three times with the big-headed doll, and the monkey, who plays the lion, was full of energy. The sound of the lions' gongs and drums added joy and brought spring to Guilin.
