Step 3 be careful with the lights

The traditional folk custom of putting lights on the Lantern Festival developed into an unprecedented Lantern Festival market in the Tang Dynasty. Chang 'an, the capital at that time, was already the largest city with a population of one million in the world, and its society was rich. Under the personal initiative of the emperor, the Lantern Festival became more and more luxurious.

4, stealing food festival

On the festival day, girls will steal other people's food in droves. It is forbidden to steal from one's own family or friends with the same surname, because stealing vegetables is related to one's marriage.
