20 19-0 1-26 A Seven-tone Lamp Appreciation Song

Watching lanterns has always been a traditional custom in China. Every year on the Lantern Festival, every household in all parts of the country is decorated with lanterns to celebrate with the whole world. It is quite happy to think about the lively and extraordinary scenes when the ancients watched lanterns. Before the Qing Dynasty, lanterns were mainly made of sorghum stalks and bamboo, and lampshades were made of various papers. There are dragon lanterns, fish lanterns, lotus lanterns, watermelon lanterns, hydrangea lanterns and boat lanterns. Later, the lighting technology and lighting varieties have been greatly developed and improved. There are "palace lanterns" in the north and "gauze lanterns" in the south, and "line lanterns beyond the Great Wall" began to be introduced into the Central Plains. Nowadays, lanterns use all kinds of electric lights, LED lights and so on. The changes of lanterns record the changes of the times, but the custom of watching lanterns has been passed down to this day.

I have been looking for the "sense of ceremony" of the Spring Festival. In addition to writing couplets, playing on New Year's Eve and watching lanterns can actually be used as one of the "ceremonial feelings" of the New Year at home. Although our family doesn't go to see the lights every year, we are always happy. Last weekend, the three of us drove more than 200 kilometers to Zigong, which is the most famous Lantern Festival in southwest China. Every year, the Lantern Festival in Zigong is crowded with people. We left early this year for the sake of the children. Cut the crap, above (note: non-professional photography, no post-stage, original ecology):

Attached is a poem of seven laws as a souvenir:

It's a hundred days for hibiscus, and it's drizzling cotton at sunset in town.

Peach blossoms are fragrant and beautiful, and the lights are dim.

Pines and cypresses soar into the sky, and their craftsmanship is better than that of immortals.

See the lights in colorful places, appreciate the lights and the moon and enjoy the world.
