Illustrated Chinese Culture After Reading

The book "Illustrated Chinese Culture" has benefited me a lot, after reading it, I learned a lot of knowledge about traditional Chinese culture.

There are countless traditional Chinese cultural practices, such as paper-cutting, couplets, ancient poems, traditional programs and so on, and the Spring Festival is the most important festival for the children of the Yellow Emperor.

From this book, I learned a lot about the origin of the traditional customs of the Spring Festival. It is said that in ancient times there was a big monster called Nian, and every Spring Festival it would come out to harm the people. Later, people came up with a way to use red paper to cut a "blessed" word pasted on the door, write some auspicious words on the red paper is also pasted on the door, the monster called the year afraid of red will never dare to come. Since then, people have been posting Spring Festival couplets year after year, which have been passed down to this day. Every New Year's Eve, the street fluttering flags, hung with red lanterns, families to buy New Year's goods, can be lively, the children put on beautiful clothes. At night, the ceremonial flowers filled the sky, with the family to eat dumplings and watch the party, the wonderful performance led us to laugh, if every day to celebrate the New Year how good.

After the Spring Festival is the Lantern Festival, which is also a festival of reunion, the day to eat Lantern Festival and guess lantern riddles, signifying the reunion of the family, the family's happiness, well-being, and each person's heart is incomparably happy and joyful. Chinese traditional programs are rich and colorful, let our traditional festivals forever inherit, let our traditional culture glorious.
