The Spring Festival is the most solemn traditional festival of the Chinese nation, and it is also an important carrier for the release of Chinese emotions and the satisfaction of psychological demands, and is the annual carnival and eternal spiritual pillar of the Chinese nation. The Spring Festival, along with the Qingming Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, is known as the four traditional festivals in China.

Lantern FestivalIt is the first important festival after the Spring Festival, and is one of the traditional festivals in China and overseas Chinese. The first lunar month is the first month of the lunar calendar, and the ancients called the night "xiao", so the fifteenth day of the first full moon night of the year is called the Lantern Festival.

In ancient Chinese customs, the Shangyuan Festival (Lantern Festival), the Zhongyuan Festival (Bon Festival) and the Xiayuan Festival (Shuiguan Festival) are collectively called Sanyuan. The Lantern Festival began more than 2,000 years ago in the Qin Dynasty. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty ordered that the fifteenth day of the first lunar month be designated as the Lantern Festival.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the "Taiyi God" sacrifice was set on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month (Taiyi: the god who rules all the universe). When Sima Qian created the "Taichu Calendar", he had already identified the Lantern Festival as a major festival.

Traditional customs go out to admire the moon, light lamps and set off flames, guess lantern riddles, eat Lantern Festival, pull rabbit lanterns, etc. In addition, the Lantern Festival in many places has also added traditional folk performances such as dragon lanterns, lion playing, stilt walking, rowing boats, twisting Yangge, and playing Taiping drums.

In June 2008, the Lantern Festival was selected into the second batch of national intangible cultural heritage.

Eating Lantern Festival is one of people's traditional customs, but Lantern Festival (glutinous rice balls) is a high-calorie, high-sugar food, obesity, high blood lipids, high blood pressure, diabetes, coronary heart disease and other patients should not eat too much.

Infants and young children under the age of 3 are not suitable for feeding Lantern Festival, and avoid choking on the esophagus or trachea.

Even if you can eat Lantern Festival, you should pay attention to the following points and control the amount of food.

If you eat this kind of food at night, it will cause the gastrointestinal tract to empty slowly, increasing the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.
