Do you know the origin and customs of Lantern Festival?

Lantern Festival has several other names, such as Shangyuan Festival, Lantern Festival and Lantern Festival. The word "Yuanxiao" is not named because it is eaten on this day. In traditional culture, yuan refers to the beginning time, that is, the first month; Night means night, and the original meaning of "Yuanxiao" is to correct the first full moon night of a month. Our country has a tradition of offering sacrifices to the moon since ancient times. After the calendar of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was clear, people also paid attention to the first full moon night of the first month. At first, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty offered sacrifices to "Taiyi God" on the 15th day of the first month, which was regarded as the beginning of the Lantern Festival. There are also small-scale folk sacrifices on the fifteenth day of the first month, but with the development of economy, people's lives are getting better and better, and with the continuous integration of various cultures, it began to spread in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, gradually forming today's Lantern Festival. Eating Yuanxiao on the fifteenth day of the first month, as a kind of food, has a long history in China. In the Song Dynasty, a novel Lantern Festival food was popular among the people. This kind of food was originally called "Floating Zi Yuan", later called "Yuanxiao", and merchants also called it "Yuanbao".
