The Lantern Festival, also known as the "Lantern Festival", falls on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the lunar calendar.

The festival of reunion is a beautiful night that symbolizes good luck and longing for a better future. Shangyuan is the first full-moon night when spring returns to the earth, so it is called Yuan Ye and Yuan Xi, and Chao is commonly known as "Fifteenth Night". In ancient times, it was the most charming, lively and "nighttime" brightly lit time of the year. On this night, not only the moon is bright and clear, but also the lights of thousands of households are bright and twinkling, so it is also called the "Festival of Lanterns". In the first year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1862), Chen Kun, the supervisor of Chaoyang County, wrote a poem called "Chaozhou Lantern Festival": "In the Shangyuan Dynasty, the lights on the six streets were red, and the figures and clothes were the same everywhere. When we met with a smile, there was no difference. Whose lantern and tiger maker came to work?" "Tang Bohu, a romantic talent from the south of the Yangtze River, also left a wonderful poem praising the popularity of the Lantern Festival: "There is a lamp without a moon, which does not entertain people; there is a moon without lamps, it is not spring; when spring comes, people are like jade, and when the lanterns are burning, the moon is like silver. The village girl is traveling around the village with pearls and greenery, playing the music with the stars and singing to the gods; how can we spend this good time without showing off our work and smiling?" The poem tells the touching scene of men and women having fun during the Lantern Festival.
Chaoshan people’s Lantern Festival cultural and entertainment activities are rich in content, diverse in form, distinctive, and fascinating. In addition to traditional lanterns, there are also fireworks, animal dances, lion and dragon dances, cross-dressing performances, yangko dances, square performances, shadow plays, swings, lantern riddles, and "sitting on a big dish" that contains interesting folk customs. , "push the toilet wall", "hug a big pig", "ask for happy things", "make a small table", "hang banyan branches and bamboo shoots on the door (commonly known as banyan bamboo door)", "gamble on sugar lions": The Chaojia family must also have baskets of sweet cakes, fermented cakes, and vegetable cakes for ancestor worship, commonly known as "three steamers in one". Especially in Chenghai Zhanglin Ancient Port, every household makes rice cake delicacies and gives them to relatives and friends to taste. This rice cake is the most nostalgic among overseas fashionistas. On the night of the Lantern Festival, the whole family reunites and holds a banquet to enjoy "family fun". In the feast of delicacies, clams, garlic and fish are indispensable delicacies. In ancient times, clam shells represented money, and eating clams meant "having something". "Money counts"; eating garlic symbolizes good luck and good luck in the years and "will make everything together"; eating fish prays for wealth and abundance every year.

Lantern Festival lantern tours have always been popular. The Jiajing version of the Teochew opera "The Story of Lai Jing" in the Ming Dynasty has a "Lamp Look" section, which says "three streets and six lanes are good lantern sheds". The "Chenghai County Chronicle" of the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty quoted old records: "From the night of the 11th, all temple streets lit up lanterns, ladies paraded, set off fireworks, played on swings, and sang until the end of the night."

After the rise of Qinglong Temple in Chaozhou in the early Qing Dynasty, the holy king visited Anji for three nights every year, with lanterns and drums playing, and the city was intoxicated. Every time on the second night, we gather at the Beimen Arrow Road for evaluation. Year after year, we strive for excellence and make Chaozhou lanterns famous at home and abroad. Chaozhou folk songs include "Song of Hundred Screens of Lanterns", which shows the prosperity of Chaozhou Lantern Festival.
In addition to large-scale lantern festivals, every household hangs wedding lanterns.
Starting from the 13th day, people go to the ancestral temple to hang lanterns. On the 15th day, they hang the lanterns on the door of their homes, which is called Xinglan.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, as we all know, is the Lantern Festival in China.
I went to Yuyuan Garden this evening to watch the Lantern Festival. Before that, my father and mother made a series of preparations: had dinner, rested for a while, and bought a beautiful lantern.
I took the lamp and followed my parents into Yu Garden. As soon as we stepped into the door, we saw many colorful and unique lanterns displayed in front of us. The first people to greet us were Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing and Fahai, as well as Fu Lu Shou Sanxing and others. We continued walking in the direction of the arrow, and when we looked up, we saw a row of palace lanterns above the front, with many lantern riddles written on them. Each lantern has four sides, and each side has a puzzle. I guessed a lot of lantern riddles. Walking further inside, there are several large landscape lights, including Smooth Sailing, Snake Riding a Dragon, Samsung Announcement, etc., which dazzled me.
Then, we came to the famous Jiuqu Bridge in Yuyuan Garden. I heard that the Jiuqu Bridge has eighteen turns. I have heard of it but never seen it. I want to feast my eyes on it today. Curiosity led me, so I "drag" my parents up. I saw groups of landscape lights in the pool under the bridge, which were actually describing the story of the White Snake: the first was Meeting at the West Lake, then the Dragon Boat Festival Horror, Stealing the Immortal Grass, Flooding the Golden Mountain, Shilin Saving His Mother , meet at Broken Bridge. The characters and scenery are all lifelike, and the entire sky is illuminated like daylight, which makes me forget to leave.
