The formation of traditional festivals

The formation of traditional festivals is a process of long-term accumulation and cohesion of national or national history and culture. These traditional festivals, such as Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, all developed from ancient times. From these festivals and customs, we can clearly see the wonderful pictures of ancient people's social life.

The origin and development of festivals is a process of gradual formation, subtle influence and gradual infiltration into social life. Like the development of society, it is the product of the development of human society to a certain stage. These festivals in ancient China, such as astronomy, calendar and mathematics in Dachuan, and the solar terms divided later, are all.

This can be traced back to Xia Xiaoli and Shangshu at least in the literature. By the Warring States period, the 24 solar terms in a year had been basically completed, and later traditional festivals were also closely related to these solar terms.
