Customs of Lantern Festival:

1, eat Yuanxiao

Eating Yuanxiao on the fifteenth day of the first month, as a kind of food, has a long history in China. In the Song Dynasty, a novel Lantern Festival food was popular among the people. This kind of food was originally called "Floating Zi Yuan", later called "Yuanxiao", and merchants also called it "Yuanbao". Yuanxiao is filled with white sugar, rose, sesame, red bean paste, yellow cinnamon, walnut kernel, nuts and jujube paste, and wrapped in glutinous rice flour into a circle.

Step 2 send lanterns

Sending lanterns is also called sending lanterns to children. In ancient times, before the Lantern Festival, newlyweds always received lanterns from their parents. Because the lanterns are homophonic with Ding, it means that their daughter's family can import more flowers in the new year and the population is prosperous. Now there are many such scenes in many TV dramas, where women put lanterns in the river.

Step 3 play with dragon lanterns

Since ancient times, China people have regarded themselves as descendants of dragons, because dragons symbolize good luck and wealth. On the Lantern Festival, dancing dragon lanterns together adds a festive atmosphere to the festival. Now many parks hold lantern festivals, which probably evolved from here.
