Origin of the Lantern Festival

The Lantern Festival is also known as the "Lantern Festival," the first day of the first month of the Lunar Calendar, the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar, or the Festival of Lanterns. The Lantern Festival began more than 2,000 years ago during the Qin Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, the 15th day of the first month was designated as the Lantern Festival. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the "Taiyi God" festival was held on the 15th day of the first lunar month (Taiyi: the God who dominates everything in the universe). When Sima Qian created the "Taichu Calendar", the Lantern Festival was already recognized as a major festival.

The Lantern Festival is the first major festival after the Chinese New Year, and is one of the traditional festivals in China, as well as in the Hanzi Cultural Circle and among overseas Chinese. The first month is the first month of the lunar calendar, and the ancients called the night "night", so the first full-moon night of the year on the fifteenth day of the first month is called the Lantern Festival.
