The Spring Festival is the New Year in our Chinese lunar calendar, so the New Year is very important to us Chinese! Therefore, preparations before the Spring Festival are also Essential.
It’s the Chinese New Year! It’s the Chinese New Year! Every household is busy posting Spring Festival couplets, shaving their hair, cooking New Year’s Eve dinner... There are too many things to do, and there are too many “rules”! Some customs are very strange, and I have no choice. Next, I asked my mother who was posting Spring Festival couplets.
I saw my mother pasting the word "福" upside down. Of course I know why it is pasted upside down. It is a custom to paste the word "福" upside down. Pasting "福" upside down means "福" is upside down. (Arrived)! But I still asked: "What are the customs and rules during the New Year?" Mom stopped what she was doing and patiently talked to me.
It turns out that there was a custom of setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, which originated from the story of the "Nian Beast". A long time ago, there was a "Nian Beast" who lived in the deep sea for a long time. On New Year's Eve, he would jump out of the sea and do evil everywhere. One year, an old man drove away the "Nian Beast" by setting off cannons, wearing red clothes, and pasting red Spring Festival couplets. Only then was he able to calm down. Since then, this method has spread. But now that fireworks are prohibited in Guangzhou, we will no longer carry out this activity.
New Year’s Eve is an extremely important day for our country. This evening, our family is preparing to get rid of the old and welcome the new, and have a family reunion dinner.
Eating New Year’s Eve dinner is the most lively and happy time for every household during the Spring Festival. On New Year's Eve, the table is filled with sumptuous New Year dishes, and the whole family reunites, sitting around the table and having a reunion dinner. People not only enjoy the table full of delicacies, but also enjoy the happy atmosphere. There are chicken, goose, roast meat, etc. on the table. Generally, two things are indispensable, one is hot pot and the other is fish. The hot pot is steaming, indicating that it is prosperous; "fish" and "yu" are homophonic, which means "more than every year". The last sweet dish, wishing you a sweet life in the future.
Today I gained a lot and learned a lot about New Year customs. However, I feel a little superstitious, but it seems to be a kind of fun. As long as I am happy, why should I be superstitious? What’s more? This is a traditional custom. It is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist!

My hometown is in Guoyang, and they all say: " "The hometown of Lao Tzu, the land of morality." If you come here, you will feel that it is worthy of the name. The customs of the Spring Festival in my hometown are also very colorful.
The New Year’s Eve in my hometown is very interesting. On New Year's Eve, our family was very relaxed. My mother went to the vegetable market to buy new year's goods, and I also stayed at home. After waiting for a long time, my mother came back and bought so many things. In the evening, I started making dumplings. I couldn't wait to wash my hands, and then helped my mother make dumplings. After making the dumplings, we took out part of the dumplings to eat, and then put the large part in the refrigerator. .
After dinner, my mother took me to see the light show in Ziguang Park. I'm also very excited. When I arrived at Ziguang Park, I saw a sea of ??people there and all kinds of lanterns dazzled me. Their colors are also colorful. Each lantern looked lifelike. After playing there for a while, I was about to go home. I reluctantly said goodbye to the beautiful lanterns.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I got up very early. After having breakfast, I could ask for lucky money.

My mother was happy, and I was also happy because I have many relatives, so I got a lot of New Year's money when I went to my relatives' houses. I was also very happy. With so much New Year's money, I could become a "little rich man".
At the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it is time to eat Yuanxiao. Our whole family sat next to the TV, eating Yuanxiao and watching the Lantern Festival party. The whole family was reunited, and I was very happy. After the Lantern Festival, the Spring Festival ends.
The Spring Festival in my hometown is really lively, and the customs are also very interesting and rich. Because today's folk customs and customs are gradually being forgotten, our generation must remember and inherit them and not let the folk customs be lost.

The Chinese nation has accumulated rich and colorful traditional culture in its more than five thousand years of splendid civilization. The Spring Festival is the most familiar and favorite traditional festival for everyone.
Legend has it that there once was a monster named "Nian". It likes to eat people. One day when it went to eat people, it was frightened by people and ran away in a hurry. People called this day "New Year".
As the Chinese New Year is approaching, every household is busy posting Spring Festival couplets. Spring couplets are also called door couplets, spring posts, couplets, couplets, etc. They describe the background of the times and express good wishes with neat, dual, concise and exquisite words. They are a unique writing form in my country. Every Spring Festival, every household, no matter in urban or rural areas, must select a red Spring Festival couplet and paste it on the door to increase the festive atmosphere.
Keeping the year old on New Year’s Eve is one of the most important annual customs. The custom of keeping the year old has a long history and was first recorded in the Western Jin Dynasty. On New Year's Eve, everyone stays up all night waiting for tomorrow, which is called "staying up late".
The night before the actual Chinese New Year is called Reunion Night. People who are away from home have to travel thousands of miles to get home, and the whole family sits together to make dumplings to celebrate the New Year.
On the first day of the New Year, which is also the first day of the Lunar New Year, people get up early, put on their most beautiful new clothes, go out to visit relatives and friends, pay New Year greetings to each other, and wish good luck in the New Year. There are many ways to pay New Year's greetings. Some are the clan leaders leading their clansmen to go door-to-door to pay New Year's greetings, some are colleagues meeting to pay New Year's greetings, and some are everyone getting together to congratulate each other, which is called "group worship." When paying New Year greetings during the Spring Festival, the younger generation should first pay New Year greetings to their elders and wish them longevity and health. The elders can give the younger generation the New Year's money prepared in advance. It is said that the New Year's money can suppress evil spirits.

Among the festivals of the year, I think the Spring Festival is the happiest, because during the Spring Festival you can have reunion dinners, visit temple fairs, Set off fireworks and watch the Spring Festival Gala. What makes me happiest and most unforgettable during the Spring Festival is the fireworks. It's a pity that fireworks are not allowed to be set off during the Spring Festival in the city.
When I was six years old, I went to my grandma’s house with my mother to spend the Spring Festival. Grandma's house is in a town in Sichuan, where fireworks can be set off. As soon as I arrived at my grandma's house, I pestered my uncle to go to the market and buy a lot of fireworks.
After lunch, my grandpa accompanied me and my brothers and sisters to set off firecrackers. My heart nearly stopped as I watched my grandpa light the fuse with his lighter. One second has passed, two seconds have passed, ten seconds have passed, why hasn't it exploded? I was just wondering, when suddenly there was a loud rumbling sound. When I saw it, these exploding firecrackers looked like a machine gun that kept firing, emitting streaks of dazzling fire.
After setting off the firecrackers, my brothers and sisters and I started playing with our homemade "hand grenades". Its production method is very simple, that is, dig a small hole in the corn cob, then put a cannon in the small hole, and then throw the corn cob on the ground, and the corn cob will explode with a loud noise. Of course, this kind of grenade has very little lethality and is relatively safe. The adults did not stop us and we had a great time.
At night, we started to set off fireworks. After we lit the fireworks, we first saw a beam of fire rushing out from the head of the fireworks. Then the sky turned into a big garden, and all kinds of fireworks were like beautiful flowers, forming a beautiful picture in the sky. The brilliant colors spread out in all directions, decorating the night sky so brightly and dazzlingly. I soaked up this beautiful night.
That was truly an unforgettable Spring Festival. Although four years have passed, the scenes of setting off fireworks are still vivid in my mind. I hope the next Spring Festival will come soon.

China is an ancient country with a long history. For thousands of years, China has handed down many traditional customs, including the Mid-Autumn Festival. Appreciating the moon and eating moon cakes, eating rice dumplings and racing dragon boats on the Dragon Boat Festival, and outing on the Qingming Festival... But among so many customs, I like the various festive customs of the Spring Festival the most.
During the Spring Festival, people will post Spring Festival couplets to welcome the New Year and ward off the New Year beasts. This custom first started in the Song Dynasty and became popular in the Ming Dynasty. During the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was particularly fond of couplets, and he also loved writing couplets, so they spread to the people. Therefore, people will post couplets every Chinese New Year. Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang also loved the color red and often wrote couplets on red paper. This is why the Spring Festival couplets passed down from generation to generation are always red.
The red paper Spring Festival couplets are neatly contrasted and the simple and exquisite words depict the unique cultural characteristics of China, which is an important custom in our hearts.
On New Year’s Day, people who work in other places, unless they really don’t have time, must go home and have a party dinner at home. At around 11 o'clock in the evening, people will set off big crackling firecrackers, as well as sky cannons and ground tops. After setting off firecrackers, people will burn paper, kowtow and toast to their ancestors, hoping that their ancestors will bring good blessings to the new year.
During the Spring Festival, people also pay New Year greetings. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people get up very early and put on new clothes. The first thing they do is go to their grandparents’ room to pay New Year greetings. The grandparents will bring red envelopes and give New Year’s money to the children.
In the Spring Festival, there are many interesting legends and customs, just waiting for us to explore one by one, just like "the winds are different in a hundred miles, and the customs are different in a thousand miles." The traditional culture of the Chinese nation will make our motherland carry forward.

The Spring Festival is the most lively and important festival of the year in our country. Early on, the New Year goods such as pairs, "福" characters, window grilles, and candies "exhibited" on the street brought me a hint of "New Year flavor".
Since the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, when people eat sesame candies to “sacrifice the kitchen official”, everyone begins to prepare for the New Year. On this day, the whole family sat together, and our children always wanted to try the crispy and sweet sesame candy first. But you have to wait until grandma goes to the kitchen to worship the Stove Lord before you can eat it. It is said that in this way the Kitchen God can go to heaven and say good things.
On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, every household sweeps the house. Mom wants to clean up the house early, in order to have a new atmosphere in the New Year. After the 20th, the adults were busy killing fish, gizzard meat, steaming steamed buns, and preparing New Year's goods.
On the 29th, every household goes to the streets to buy couplets, and those who are in the mood also spread paper and splash ink to decorate the doors inside and outside the house. Spring couplets are also called door pairs, couplets, pairs, etc. It describes the background of the times and expresses good wishes with neat, dual, concise and exquisite words. It is a unique literary form in China. The real popularity of Spring Festival couplets began in the Ming Dynasty, which is related to Zhu Yuanzhang's advocacy. One year when Zhu Yuanzhang was preparing to celebrate the New Year, he ordered that a Spring Festival couplet be posted on every door to celebrate. Originally the Spring Festival couplets were inscribed on peach boards, but later they were rewritten on paper. The color of peach wood is red, and red has the meaning of good luck and warding off evil spirits, so the Spring Festival couplets are mostly written on red paper.
On New Year’s Eve, the sound of firecrackers adds to the festive atmosphere. After lunch, the fragrant meat fillings were served, and the family made dumplings. The gay men rolled the dough, the children acted as transporters, and the mothers were responsible for making exquisite dumplings. Grandma also puts coins in the dumplings to see who is the luckiest. When plates of filling dumplings were served to the table, everyone found the dumplings they were satisfied with, opened their mouths and bit into them, hoping for good luck. In the end, the lucky dumpling was eaten by my father.
On New Year’s Eve, every household eats dumplings. We have dinner early and watch the Spring Festival Gala in front of the TV, which is also "keeping up the year".
The days from the first to the sixth day of the lunar month are the time for us children to "make money". Every day we either stayed at grandpa's house or grandma's house. In my mother's words, we were "away from home all day", but we still ran around happily.
Our Spring Festival usually ends on February 2, when the dragon raises its head. Although Puyang is not a big city, like many big cities, it welcomes the Spring Festival with great excitement and sends it off with great excitement.

As long as all the family members are here, you can eat it anytime you want.
At night, only the people in my own family were left. Before watching the Spring Festival Gala, it was the time I was most looking forward to: collecting New Year's money. Congratulations on getting rich, here are the red envelopes! One for my uncle, one for my uncle, one for my grandma... We all finished our work and it was time to sit down and rest, so we reunited to watch the Spring Festival Gala. Watching and chatting at the same time, it seems as if there is never enough to say.

The custom may be unique to our hometown, but it is the same. I have seen it and you have heard it!

"Spring Festival" is a very important traditional festival in China. During the Spring Festival, the whole country celebrates with joy and harmony everywhere.
The Spring Festival in Foshan usually starts in the twenties of the lunar calendar. The main activities include flower shopping, New Year shopping, etc. Foshan people love to visit flower streets, and over time, this has become an indispensable activity for Foshan people during the Spring Festival. Therefore, according to the custom of past dynasties, a New Year's Eve flower market will be held.
The phrase "Twenty-eight years old, wash away the sloppiness" is Cantonese. Foshan people will clean every corner of their homes on the 28th day of the lunar calendar. Get rid of the bad things from this year and welcome the new year. Years ago, Foshan people would still cook oil pans and steam rice cakes. Opening a frying pan and frying egg crumbs, fried noodles, fried dumplings, etc. means that the days in the coming year will be like a frying pan, moist and full of oil. Foshan people also love steamed rice cakes, which symbolizes prosperity every year.
On the eve of New Year’s Eve, children will set off fireworks everywhere. Not only that, everyone will also be busy cooking New Year’s Eve dinner. Foshan people are very particular about the dishes of New Year's Eve dinner, which must be delicious and good-intentioned. Generally, chicken is included in New Year's Eve dinner. As the saying goes, "There is no feast without chicken", so chicken is indispensable. Secondly, there are some dishes suitable for the occasion, such as: fish, which means more than enough every year; fat vegetables, which means getting rich; oysters, which means good things... After dinner, everyone will go shopping in Flower Street. The closer it is to twelve o'clock, the more popular it becomes. The more prosperous.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone will sleep until nearly noon before getting up. After lunch, Foshan people will go to the park to watch performances or visit relatives and friends’ homes to pay New Year greetings. When paying New Year greetings, no matter how many gifts you bring, they cannot be in odd numbers, because as the saying goes, "good things come in pairs." After entering the door, you must first say different blessings to each other. Say "Blessed New Year" and "Blessed Life" to the elderly; "Good luck in the work" and "Progress in the New Year" to those who have jobs; and to business people, nothing is more pleasant than "Big profits in the New Year" and " Make a fortune and benefit the market." During New Year greetings, elders will give pre-prepared gifts to minors to express their good fortune and blessings.
On the Lantern Festival, which falls on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is a saying in Foshan that goes, "There is no blindness when everything goes well." This means that on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, people will walk on the Tongji Bridge holding windmills and lettuce, which are homophones for "making money", to pray for good health and prosperity. In addition, glutinous rice balls are also eaten on this day, which means harmony, beauty and reunion.

As soon as we enter the twelfth lunar month, the New Year flavor in our hometown becomes even stronger. In the old days, the Chinese New Year started on the eighth day of August and ended on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month according to the calendar year. It is the same now.
The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is commonly known as Laba Day. More sophisticated people will eat "Laba porridge" and soak "Laba garlic" every morning on this day to celebrate the harvest and wish for a good harvest in the coming year.
After drinking the sweet and delicious "Laba porridge" and eating the soaked green "Laba garlic", in the expectation of the children, we ushered in the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month - the Little New Year. On this night, every household reluctantly places sugar melons, hawthorns, persimmons, red dates, peanuts, etc. on the statue of the Stove God, praying to the God of the Stove to "speak good things to heaven and ensure peace to the earth", which is commonly known as "Citing the Stove". After this day, wanderers who were doing business, working, or studying abroad began to return home one after another with infinite longing for their relatives in their hometowns, imagining the excitement of seeing their relatives countless times along the way. With the joy of the harvest, relatives at home began to buy chicken, duck, fish, wine and vegetables, incense, firecrackers, etc., which are called "New Year's goods"; steaming steamed buns, making rice cakes, and making tofu are called "New Year's dinners". You can eat it until February 2nd.
On the evening of New Year’s Eve, the whole family, old and young, gathers together to have a sumptuous New Year’s Eve dinner and enjoy family happiness, which is called “Farewell to the New Year”. Then everyone prepares the things inside and outside the house. The lights are brightly lit, people stay up all night, and they stay up all night, which is called "watching the New Year's Eve". On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone puts on brand-new clothes, walks from house to house, and sends New Year blessings to each other.

My hometown is Zhouzhi, and there are many customs during the Spring Festival in my hometown. I will introduce them to you one by one below.
On the day before the Spring Festival, every household must post "Spring Festival couplets". "Spring Festival Couplets", also called "Spring Couplets", have a long history in our country. They began in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, became more prosperous in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and have been developed for more than a thousand years today. As early as before the Qin and Han Dynasties, Chinese people had the custom of hanging peach charms on the left and right sides of the door during the New Year. Taofu are two large boards made of peach wood, with the names of the legendary ghost-conquering gods written on them respectively, which can drive away ghosts and suppress evil spirits. This custom has lasted for more than a thousand years. With the development of society, our current Spring Festival couplets are written on red paper with a brush dipped in ink, which symbolizes good fortune and blessings, and expresses people's good wishes.
Another important custom is “keeping the year old”. I heard from my mother that staying up late on New Year's Eve is not only a nostalgia for the past year, but also a good hope for the coming New Year. The New Year’s Eve dinner begins with the New Year’s Eve dinner. This New Year’s Eve dinner should be eaten slowly. It starts in the evening. Some people have to eat until late at night, chatting while eating. The ancients had customs such as writing poems, and now we have more Rich in content, watching the "Spring Festival Gala" on New Year's Eve has become something that most people look forward to, and even children like it very much.
