1, Lantern Festival Lantern Festival

Lantern Festival is a traditional festival in China, which falls on the 15th day of the first month. This year, I spent a particularly lively midnight snack.

Say special, because this is the first time I'm not at home for the holidays. In the past, every year on the fifteenth day of the first month, the family got ready to see the lanterns early. Every year, I can enjoy beautiful, novel and colorful lanterns and see beautiful, charming and colorful fireworks. According to my mother, Zhangye's lantern festival will be brighter than Linze's, so I got my parents' permission to spend the Lantern Festival at Aunt Zhangye's house.

Aunt had already cooked jiaozi, round and sweet. My brother and I only ate a few, so we pestered her to take us to see the lights.

When we arrived at the square, it was a sea of people, surrounded by lanterns of various shapes and sizes, which made people dizzying. There are burning goldfish lights, Fuwa lights and peacock lights symbolizing the Olympic Games ... This year is the Year of the Ox, and the ox is of course the protagonist. In spring, there are golden bull lights, cowboys playing with cows, bullfighting lights and rows of shining flower cow lights, wishing people health, career and life this year.

The flashing lighthouse in the distance attracted me, and we had a hard time getting to the front. The tall lighthouse is inlaid with beautiful neon lights, red, blue, yellow and green, colorful, standing in the center of the square, very beautiful.

After a while, we came to Ganquan Park, where many lights were hung, especially among the willows. There are lovely doll lights, beautiful peacock lights and gold ingot lights, which really make people linger.

At this time, the sky in the square suddenly lit up with a rumble. Oh, it turns out that the fireworks have started to set off. This is what I am looking forward to most. I saw fireworks bloom in the air like beautiful flowers, and then slowly disappear. Some of them are like beautiful meteors flying across the sky, while others are like scattered flowers falling slowly from the distant sky. Very beautiful.

How lively Zhangye is on the fifteenth day of the first month, and how charming the night view of the Lantern Festival is!

2. watch fireworks on the lantern festival.

Today is the fifteenth day of the first month, and the annual Lantern Festival is here again. Whenever this time, I think of watching fireworks.

Oh! There are many people watching the fireworks. Everyone is talking about and imagining beautiful fireworks. Look up at the sky and look forward to the light in the night. "Sou" the roar of the flame broke the words just now. The flame dragged its golden tail like a comet and threw it into the arms of the night. "Bang" flame drove out the Monkey King's "seventy-two changes" and instantly opened a beautiful smile in the air. Hey! Look, a dazzling queen of flowers-big peony has appeared! There are countless colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple, which are richer and bigger than the morning glow. Its elegant and clean dance made the audience full of praise, and I couldn't help shouting. Then, the peony dispersed into twinkling stars and tottered in the air. Peony is not finished yet, which purple orchid follows. Fireworks appeared one after another, and their beautiful dance made us dazzled and cheered again and again.

However, the most prominent thing is the "meteor shower". I saw flames rising into the sky and exploding in the air in an instant. It sounds like thunder. The blasted meteor fled around with its slender tail, and then fell and dragged its small tail. Look! The tail has turned into a tender willow with yellow leaves, and then a wisp of white smoke rises, just like the spring breeze, and my thoughts fly to the willow group of "green makeup is as high as a tree, and thousands of strands of moss tapestry hang down". The night sky is like an all-encompassing brocade, embroidered with colorful flowers, which makes everyone applaud like thunder.

The fireworks show is over, and I'm still immersed in glory. I really appreciate fireworks. They went straight into the sky one by one and were shattered in an instant. Although their lives are short, they have set a glorious image for everyone. What a respectable "fireworks" spirit!

3. Interesting Lantern Festival

China has many traditional cultures; There are also paper-cuts, birthday Lantern Festival, Lantern Festival and so on. My favorite is the Lantern Festival.

Of course, you must eat Yuanxiao after the Lantern Festival. Yuanxiao, also known as Tangyuan, has a story! Long ago, people called jiaozi Yuanxiao. Yuan Shikai felt very unlucky when he found out. Isn't "Yuanxiao" just "Yuanxiao"? So he ordered that Yuanxiao be changed into glutinous rice balls. Since then, Yuanxiao has also been called Tangyuan. Yuanxiao has many fillings, including red beans, sesame seeds and mung beans.

Jiaozi is ripe, so I can't wait to pick one up and put it in my mouth. My mother shouted. "Be careful, don't burn yourself." Take a bite of the filling and let it flow out slowly. It's sticky. It tastes sweet and delicious!

Lantern Festival is indispensable to enjoy lanterns. After eating Yuanxiao, my father and I came to Tianyi Square. There are so many lanterns here! There are running tigers, eating rabbits and swimming fish. How rich! This place has become a sea of lights. Bright world! Dad bought me a rabbit lantern. Just press the button and the rabbit will sing a happy song. I quickly picked up my rabbit lamp and added lanterns.

4. Revelation of Lantern Festival

Today, my mother came home early in the morning with a big bag of flour and minced meat in her hand.

In a short time, all the materials are ready, and I'm going to start learning Bao Yuanxiao! My mother taught me to mix flour and glue first, then take out a little and knead it into a circle. Then press the round side with your fingers, put some minced meat in, and finally pinch the notch. Juicy and delicious yuan

It will be wrapped up at night. Suddenly, my father asked me, "Do you know the origin of the Lantern Festival?" I shook my head. So my father said to me: "The first month is January, and the ancients called the night' Xiao', and the fifteenth day is the first full moon night of the year, so the fifteenth day of the first month is called the Lantern Festival. Also known as' Shangyuan Festival'. According to legend, before the reign of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty, the fifteenth day of the first month was designated as the Lantern Festival, and Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty formulated the taichu calendar, which further affirmed the importance of the Lantern Festival. With the development of the past dynasties, the Lantern Festival has been continuously extended. According to legend, the Lantern Festival in the Tang Dynasty lasted only three days, which was extended to five days in the Song Dynasty and ten days in the Ming Dynasty, that is, from the eighth day of August until the seventeenth year. Lantern Festival originated in the Han Dynasty, and it is said that it was set up to commemorate Pinglu during the reign of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty. After the death of Emperor Liu Ying of the Han Dynasty, Lv Hou usurped power, and the Lushi family dominated the state affairs. week

After Lv Hou's death, Chen Ping and others eliminated the influence of Lv Hou and established Liu Heng as the emperor of China. Because the day when Lu was pacified was the fifteenth day of the first month, after that, every year on the fifteenth night of the first month, Emperor Wen of Han went out of the palace to celebrate with the people incognito, and designated the fifteenth day of the first month as the Lantern Festival.

This shows that as long as you pay attention everywhere, you can learn knowledge at any time.

On the night of the Lantern Festival.

Today is February 23rd, the annual Lantern Festival. I go shopping with my parents in the evening.

The streets are full of traffic and bright lights. The four wide roads around the city center are brightly lit, which makes the whole city shrouded in a sea of lights and filled with festive atmosphere everywhere. Our family came to the gate of Shangdu, where a group of people gathered, and there were people on the third floor inside and outside. An outdoor stage was set up in the crowd, and eight children blew balloons on it to see who would blow up the balloon first. Although those children are thin and fragile, they can still shine when blowing balloons. The host on the side kept cheering with a microphone in his hand, which pushed the atmosphere of the audience to a climax.

We walked through the bustling crowd to the hall. The big signboard in the hall aroused my strong curiosity. I lean over to see, it is in solve riddles on the lanterns, guessing, found that the total service is too cash. I was full of energy and quickly dragged my parents to the second floor. On the second floor, I looked up at the ceiling. Wow, there are many lanterns. There are red notes hanging under some lanterns, which are riddles. Some are typing an idiom, some are a word, some are a star's name, some are a book title and a dish name. There are various forms, which are very nerve-racking. When I got to the place where underwear was sold, there was a riddle that I knew at a glance: the water athlete (to use an idiom) guessed like a duck to water, because this riddle was once broadcast on TV. Just as I excitedly reported the answer to the reception desk, my father's words made me hesitate: "Of course not, what is the relationship between' like a duck to water' and' water athletes'?" I think so, but I clearly remember that it is right, yes, believe in yourself. So I went to the reception desk with confidence. Before I could speak, the staff said, "It's past 7: 30, and there is no activity." Oh, what a pity!

7. Lantern Festival fireworks display

Looking forward to the stars and the moon, I finally look forward to the annual Lantern Festival fireworks show in Nanjing. When we came to Zhongshan Bridge, there was a sea of people and great excitement. People waited in twos and threes for the fireworks display to start, and some children were holding lanterns.

At eight o'clock sharp, "wooshing wooshing ..." Fireworks were sprayed on the levee, showing the six characters of "Southeast Sea Resort". 1 of "pa", a fire point flew into the sky like an arrow leaving the string, and a bright smile broke out. It's beautiful, like a halo on the head of a little angel! Another "bang" sound, fireworks rushed into the sky one after another: some fireworks were yellow at first, but finally turned purple; Some spray into the sky, producing silvery white flowers, shooting into the sky like arrows, and then falling on people and eaves like meteors; Some fireworks are like bees leaving their nests and flying in all directions. ...

In the night sky, hundreds of "flowers" are in full bloom, and the flamingo silver flower is like a palette, depicting the dark night sky as a colorful happy picture of the Lantern Festival. You see, fireworks: red is like fire, yellow is like gold, green is like grass, white is like silver, purple is like eggplant ... The crowd immediately boils, and the magnificent sight of "firewood and silver flowers are sleepless" that we only saw on TV in the past has opened our eyes to the men, women and children watching here today, and everyone can't help cheering.

Water ballet is like a group of fairies in golden dresses dancing on the Jingjiang River. Water hibiscus is even more magical, just like the spark of a little star spraying in all directions, sometimes high and sometimes low. There is another peacock spreading its wings by the river. Look at its feathers. It will turn purple, but it will turn lemon yellow over there. I thought to myself, "This peacock ... stinks!" It's dazzling, dazzling. Some opened their mouths wide, some stared like two bells, some pointed and praised.

"Flying down three thousands of feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen for nine days." Once again, I saw a shocking picture on the levee-a row of fireworks fell from the sky like a waterfall, and the sound was like a waterfall. Suddenly, my eyes lit up and I saw several uncles taking pictures with mobile phones and cameras. I patted my forehead and whispered, "Oh, look at my memory. Why did I leave my camera at home in such a hurry when I went out? "

Finally, there was a loud bang, like a landslide, as if the earth were going to shake. With the loud noise, something bright seems to fall from the sky. I took a closer look, and it turned out that the red lanterns were scattered all over the floor like fairy flowers, covering the night sky and falling leisurely. "Red lanterns, according to the somebody else. The red candle shakes, and the good news comes ... "Yes, isn't this colorful fireworks a symbol of the thriving life of Nanjing people?

How charming tonight is! Gorgeous fireworks, flaming lanterns, numerous buildings and tidal crowds decorate Nanjing during the festival, which fully shows the joy and good wishes of Nanjing people for a bumper harvest.
