On the fifteenth day of the first month of the Lantern Festival, how did the folk custom of burning dragon lanterns come from in some places?
In feudal times, the dragon was the symbol of the emperor, and the holy spirit was inviolable. Dragons are also used to refer to emperors and emperors' things: dragon types, dragon faces, dragon courts, dragon robes, dragon palaces and so on. Later, the folk custom of "burning dragon lanterns" gradually formed in remote areas. In the old society, because the emperor had no choice, the people could not survive, and the hungry people had to light dragon lanterns to vent their anger after the Lantern Festival. Since then, this activity has gradually developed into a folk festival.
Shiqiao Lantern, also known as Dragon Lantern, is an ancient traditional folk activity. It has a long history. It began in Jin, flourished in Tang and flourished in Ming and Qing Dynasties. For thousands of years, the Stone Man Bridge Lamp is famous for its unique shape, grand scale, magnificent momentum, exquisite craftsmanship and rich folk customs. Legend has it that dragons can make clouds and rain, eliminate disasters and reduce happiness, symbolizing good luck. Therefore, it has become a custom all over the country to pray for a bumper harvest with dragon dancing.
