What are the customs and habits in Tianjin?

Customs and habits in Tianjin: 1, Laba: On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Tianjin people cook Laba porridge and soak garlic into green Laba garlic with vinegar. 2. Visit Niangniang Palace: After the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, there will be many new year's goods in the business circle around Niangniang Palace, and most women come here to "wash dolls". The "dolls" tied back from Niangniang Palace have to be "washed once a year", which is something that women must complete before the festival.

3. Melon sacrifices to the stove: The 23rd of the twelfth lunar month is the day when the kitchen god ascended to heaven. Every family will buy honeydew melons and wait until 12 in the evening to offer sacrifices to the kitchen god. After the incense is burned, please come down from the statue of Kitchen God, light it and burn it. You can buy a new statue of the kitchen god on New Year's Eve, which is commonly known as the "kitchen god size" and change it every year. The purpose of offering honeydew melons to the stove is to stick the mouth of the kitchen god so that the kitchen god will not speak ill.

The production method is "half-printing and half-painting", that is, the lines of the picture are first carved with wood, then printed on paper with ink, printed in monochrome for two or three times, filled with colored pens, hooked, carved, brushed, painted and mounted by hand.

5. Breaking Five: Tianjin people call the fifth day of the first month "breaking five". On this day, every household will eat jiaozi, and the chopping board will jingle for the neighbors to hear, to show that they are chopping "little people".
