The development of traditional festivals:

Most holiday customs appeared in ancient times, but their richness and popularity have gone through a long process of development. Folk festivals come from humanities and natural culture, and the earliest folk activities are related to primitive worship and sacrificial culture. Every traditional festival has its own activity carrier, such as Lantern Festival, dragon boat race and ancestor worship.

Most traditional festivals were formed in ancient times. In the pre-Qin period, due to the different customs between the north and the south, the customs between the north and the south have not been integrated and popularized, and many ancient festivals and customs activities are rarely recorded in the Central Plains literature. The Han Dynasty was the first great development period after the reunification of China. The economic and cultural exchanges between the North and the South made customs and habits merge with each other, which provided good social conditions for the spread and popularization of festival customs.
