My favorite festival is the Spring Festival in our country. There is no doubt that "a year after firecrackers, the spring breeze warms Tu Su" is the best portrayal of the Spring Festival.
The Spring Festival is the beginning of the lunar calendar and a traditional festival in China. This festival is very grand in our country, commonly known as "Chinese New Year". During the Spring Festival, every household should tear off the old Spring Festival couplets and blessings and put on new ones. It's called saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.
Every New Year's Eve, the air seems to be filled with the joy and passion brought by the Spring Festival. At this time, people's mobile phones rang again and again. It's not a phone call, it's a short message. The trend of mobile phone New Year greetings is surging in China. Those blessings and greetings received in the New Year are quietly blooming in the sun. Dishes of delicious food came to the table, and the family finally got together to eat the New Year's Eve dinner, chatting about the trivial things in life and recalling the bits and pieces of this year. There seems to be a taste of happiness between the lines. After dinner, the family huddled on the sofa and watched the Spring Festival Gala happily. They are amused by the humorous language on the screen from time to time. From time to time, they are moved by the graceful dancing of the dancers, and from time to time, they talk about their own views for the broadcast programs.
Wake up in the morning, I believe you will think: the new year has begun again! We should put on new clothes, dress ourselves up, and then go door to door to pay New Year greetings to our neighbors. Go out to meet, screaming: "Congratulations! Congratulations! " "happiness! Tongxi! " The lucky money is full of wallets, and the heart is full of sweetness. Then, it is to visit relatives and friends and have a good meal.
On the fifteenth day of the first month, the Chinese New Year is coming to an end. On the night of Lantern Festival, the moon is really round! Like a big jade plate, sometimes a few clouds float by, as if a shy girl covered her face with silk and looked like a shadow.
"Fireworks!" The audience was filled with joy. Colorful fireworks make the black sky look particularly beautiful. The most beautiful is "The Butterfly", where only three colorful "butterflies" rush into the sky, and all colors are intertwined, just like a beautiful fairy scattering petals in the sky. I can't wait to start the fireworks. I hold a fireworks stick and keep shaking up and down, sometimes into a dragon, winding and fluttering; Sometimes it is shaken into a beautiful wreath, shining; Sometimes it turns into a waterfall flying straight down, and the water drops are stirring everywhere ... Isn't it a beautiful picture with colorful fireworks and red faces?
Say goodbye to the old year with laughter and welcome the new year with laughter. We sow new hopes in the new year, and the new year carries our new dreams! It's nice to celebrate the New Year. I love my festival-Spring Festival!
Chapter 2: My favorite traditional festivals.
There are many traditional festivals in China, such as Spring Festival, Lantern Festival and New Year's Eve. Among them, my favorite is the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival is here.
It means that spring has come, everything has revived, flowers and trees have taken on a new look, and a new round of sowing and harvesting season is about to begin. People have just spent a long winter in ice and snow, and their plants are dying. They have long been looking forward to the day when spring is blooming and full of vitality. When the new year comes, people will naturally sing and dance happily to welcome this festival.
There have been many folk sayings about the origin of the Spring Festival since ancient times. Among them, it is widely circulated that there was a monster named Nian in ancient China, which had horns on its head and was very fierce. He lived on the bottom of the sea for many years, and every specific day, that is, New Year's Eve, he would go ashore to devour livestock and hurt people's lives. Therefore, on this day every year, people help the old and take care of the young, and go up the mountain to avoid the "Year".
One year on New Year's Eve, an old beggar came from outside the village, and everyone in the village panicked. Only an old woman in the village gave him some food and advised him to go up the mountain and hide. The old man said, "If you let me stay at your house for one night, I will definitely drive Nian away." The old woman didn't believe it and continued to persuade, but the old man smiled without a word. The old woman had to go up the mountain alone.
In the middle of the night, Nian broke into the village and found that the atmosphere was different from previous years. The old woman in the village east put red paper on the door and lit candles in the room. She was trembling and screaming. When she approached the door, there was a crackling sound in the room, and she dared not go any further. It turns out that Nian was most afraid of red, fire and explosion. At that moment, the door suddenly opened, and the old man was wearing a red robe and laughing at the door. I ran away in 2000, so the custom of posting Spring Festival couplets and setting off firecrackers was handed down.
During the Spring Festival, we usually eat rice cakes, jiaozi, glutinous rice balls and poached eggs. There are also many activities, such as preparing new year's goods, putting up New Year pictures, putting up Spring Festival couplets and so on. On this day, people enjoy family happiness.
On the Spring Festival, the younger generation will pay New Year greetings to their elders, who will give them lucky money. There is a saying in China that the first thing to do when opening the door during the Spring Festival is to set off firecrackers to bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new year. Wang Anshi, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, also wrote a poem about people's deep blessings and ardent expectations for an auspicious and happy life.
first day of the lunar month
Except for the one-year-old in firecrackers,
The spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu.
Thousands of families are dying,
Always trade new peaches for old ones.
I like the Spring Festival best, because it is the first and most grand festival in the New Year. On this festival, people visit relatives and friends, eat big meals and have lucky money, so I like it very much.
