In the first month, also called "January", in order to commemorate the fifteenth day of this day, Chinese emperor is this day would be a "Lantern Festival".

“正月十五闹元宵”，每年春节过后的农历正月十五是我国的元宵节，又叫“灯节”和“上元节”，是中国自古以来就在民间流传的另一个已有2000多年历史的传统佳节。

元宵节起源于西汉王朝。相传汉惠帝死后飞扬跋扈的吕后篡权，任用了大量吕氏亲信，宦官当权。吕后死后，公元前179年，汉文帝在老忠臣协助下登基，博采众议，在正月十五这天，一举扫除了诸吕残余势力。因古代“夜”与“宵”同义。正月又叫“元月”，为了纪念正月十五这一天，汉文帝就将此日定为“元宵节”。从此，经隋至唐，到唐玄宗李隆基时，为显示大唐兴盛，国泰民安，逐沿用旧俗，每到“元宵节”这天，张灯结彩，欢庆狂欢，“一曲笙歌春如海，千门灯火夜似昼”，使这一节日更加兴盛。

节日期间，灯月交辉，游人如织，正如唐代诗人张说所描绘的：“花萼楼前雨露新，长安城里太平人。龙衔火树千灯焰，鸡踏莲花万岁春”。李商隐的诗曰：“月色灯光满帝城，香车宝辇溢通衢”，描绘了当时观灯时车水马龙的宏大场面。流传到宋代，在元宵之夜悬灯欢乐的规模更加盛况空前，花灯的装饰造型也更精美，灯节带给人们更多欢乐，更多光明。诗人苏东坡有诗云：“灯光家之有，笙歌处之楼”;大词人辛弃疾也曾有著名词作：“东风夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。风箫声动，玉壶光转，一夜鱼龙舞。”这些诗词描绘了当时元宵佳节满城花灯齐放，通宵达旦，歌舞笙乐的壮观场面。到了清代，据《京都风俗志》记载：清代太平年间每年元宵节都是：“通街委巷，灯光星布珠悬，皎如白昼”，“王孙贵客、士女儿童，倾城出游，谓之逛灯”，由此可见元宵节观灯的热闹场面。

到近代，这一习俗代代流传，至今仍经久不衰。老百姓家家户户都在门前和屋内悬挂彩灯、大红灯笼，全家团圆，围坐一起，观花赏灯吃元宵，象征着“团圆美满，丰收和睦”，同时这一天还标志着是春节欢乐的最后一幕，热热闹闹过完了“元宵节”，才算是真正过完了春节。

宋代诗人欧阳修诗曰：“去年元宵时，花市灯如昼。月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。”说明在这灯好月明人团圆的喜庆佳节里，亲朋好友相约团聚，早已是民间庆春节的重要习俗。如果在团聚时捧去一把鲜花，携带上一个花篮，让美丽娇艳的鲜花送来一个吉祥幸福的欢乐好运，会给朋友相聚增添无比欢乐的心情，这时应该选用寓意团团美美、如意祥瑞的花材，如火红的火鹤花、满枝悬挂形似红爆竹的炮仗花、鲜艳的孔雀草、象征明媚春天光明的银芽柳、闪烁洁白繁星的满天星等，都会展现出一片祥和安乐的氛围，为亲朋好友送去一年吉祥幸福的祝愿。

The Lantern Festival, folk custom has three: one, yuanxiao. Second, watching lanterns; 3, fireworks, today I say to you here.

Yuanxiao, there are many kinds of tastes: black sesame, blueberry, chocolate, etc., which I love to eat black sesame seed, skin slippery (ha ha, how so sound like soap? Bite filling came out, not to be so sweet death, also not so pale. The food is delicious. : hey...

We also went to see the lantern. Just into the gate square, you can see two high carried the head of the phoenix, our vendors neatly standing below, his mouth kept Shouting: "through pass by dont miss!" Go to the middle, they saw a large bowl and glaze color clear, really like the blue and white porcelain of Ming dynasty. The bottom of the bowl and there will be "catering" : scallions, chili, pepper and tomato. Bowl is in front of a small stage, the stage after eight long claws, commanding presence. Large bowl of the end of the three is the ice sculptures, all with classical style houses! Bowl on the left is an ox, tiger, Chinese zodiac sheep... Yi? Is this a mouse or a squirrel?

In the evening, we watched the fireworks. Oh! From iron square has been out two or three kilometers, this also proved a riddle: what is the worlds longest car car? A: a traffic jam. I am impatient, and mommy to get off. Fireworks are red, orange, yellow, green, purple, the most beautiful fireworks is also the biggest: bam, bam, bam, three golden fireworks, formed a golden tree, beautiful. And "golden waterfall", "color flower"...

This year, we gladly make the Lantern Festival.

元宵节到了，民间有三个习俗：一、吃元宵;二、看花灯;3、放烟花，今天我就在这儿说一说。

元宵有很多种口味：黑芝麻、蓝莓、巧克力等等，其中我最爱吃黑芝麻的了，外皮滑溜溜的(呵呵，听起来怎么那么像肥皂?)咬一口馅就出来了，不是那么甜得发腻，也没有那么淡。好吃!嘻……

我们也去看了花灯。刚入广场大门，可以看到两只高抬着头的凤凰，下面整齐地站着卖荧光棒的小贩，嘴里不停喊着：“走过路过别错过!”走到中间，看见一个大碗，釉色清晰明朗，真像明代的青花瓷!碗的下面还有还有“配餐”:大葱、辣椒、彩椒、西红柿。大碗的前面是一个小舞台，舞台后有八只张牙舞爪的长龙，威风凛凛。大碗的后面是三座冰雕，全是具有古典风格的房屋!大碗的左面是十二生肖有牛、虎、羊……咦?这是老鼠还是松鼠?

晚上，我们看了烟花。呵!从铁人广场一直排出两、三千米，这也验证了一个谜语：世界上最长的车是什么车?答：堵车。我不耐烦了，和妈咪下车看。烟花有红色、橙色、金黄色、绿色、紫色，那最好看的烟花也是最大的：砰，砰，砰，三个金黄色的烟花，形成了一个金黄色的树，漂亮极了。还有“黄金瀑布”、“变色花”……

今年，我们欢欢喜喜的闹了元宵节。

每年的阴历正月十五是中国人很重视的传统节日，元宵节。元宵节也叫“上元节”,春灯节，是很多家庭团圆的节日。正月十五日是一年中第一个月圆之夜，加上吃元宵的习俗，这个节日就和团圆两个字牢牢的联系起来。元宵节是春节之后的第一个重要节日，不管是南方北方都对这个节日比较重视，举行很多的活动来庆祝这个节日。大家一定很好奇元宵节的来历和习俗，现在中国吃网小编就告诉你元宵节是怎么来的，都有哪些习俗。

有关元宵节来历的说法多种多样，有3种说法流传较广。

元宵节来历传说一

宵节是汉文帝时为纪念“平吕”而设。相传吕后一系在吕后死后害怕大全旁落，密谋叛乱，宗室齐王刘囊联合开国老臣周勃一起平定了“诸吕之乱”。平乱之后，众臣拥立刘邦的第二个儿子刘恒登基，称汉文帝。文帝深感太平盛世来之不易，便把平息“诸吕之乱”的正月十五，定为与民同乐日，京城里家家张灯结彩，以示庆祝。从此，正月十五便成了一个普天同庆的民间节日--“闹元宵”。

元宵节来历传说二

元宵节又称“上元节”,是人们庆祝一年中第一次的月圆之夜。据道教的“三元说”,正月十五日为上元节，七月十五日为中元节，十月十五日为下元节。主管上、中、下三元的分别为天、地、人三官，天官喜乐，故上元节要燃灯。元宵燃灯放烟火的习俗就是从这个说法来的。

元宵节来历传说三

元宵节起源于“火把节”,汉代民众在乡间田野持火把驱赶虫兽，希望减轻虫害，祈祷获得好收成。直到今天，中国西南一些地区的人们还在正月十五用芦柴或树枝做成火把，成群结队高举火把在田头或晒谷场跳舞。隋、唐、宋以来，更是盛极一时。参加歌舞者足达数万，从昏达旦，至晦而罢。当随着社会和时代的变迁，元宵节的风俗习惯早已有了较大的变化，但至今仍是中国民间传统节日，火把也逐渐变为了彩灯。

自唐朝中期以来，元宵节发展成为了我国全民性的狂欢节，因此元宵节是把传统节日习俗体现得最为彻底和典型的传统节日。

大部分地方元宵节习俗有吃元宵、观花灯、猜灯谜，还有擂鼓、舞龙、舞狮等活动，但南北各地风俗也有独特之处。

probably more food is consumed during the new year celebrations than any other time of the year. vast amounts of traditional food is prepared for family and friends, as well as those close to us who have died.

on new years day, the chinese family will eat a vegetarian dish called jai. although the various ingredients in jai are root vegetables or fibrous vegetables, many people attribute various superstitious aspects to them.

other foods include a whole fish, to represent togetherness and abundance, and a chicken for prosperity. the chicken must be presented with a head, tail and feet to symbolize completeness. noodles should be uncut, as they represent long life.

in south china, the favorite and most typical dishes were nian gao, sweet steamed glutinous rice(糯米)pudding and zong zi (glutinous rice wrapped up in reed(芦苇)leaves), another popular delicacy.

in the north, steamed-wheat bread (man tou) and small meat dumplings were the preferred food. the tremendous amount of food prepared at this time was meant to symbolize abundance and wealth for the household.

There are many, many traditional Chinese festivals, such as: the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn festival, chung yeung festival and so on. Lantern Festival is my favorite holiday, because in that day, I can see all kinds of lanterns.

Why, then, the Lantern Festival to admire the lanterns? There is a beautiful legend there also!

The fifteenth day of the first words in ancient times a year, a scholar in the palace garden for a walk. Suddenly, he heard from the corridor there came the voice of the cry, he went over to look.

Turned out to be a palace maid in a chair weeping. Scholar asked her: "why are you crying?" Maid-in-waiting said: "I called yuanxiao palace, this several days to come over, I want to go home. Take a look at the parents, however, dont agree in a palace maid of the palace." Hearing this, the writers are very sympathy for her, for she thought a good idea.

Literati riding out of the palace, came to the street. He said to the people: "tonight, vulcan advent world, you are on the door hung a small lantern, who do not hang, who will be a fire." Literati and wrote a letter to the emperor, the letter said, palace tonight will happen in the big fire. Everyone out of the palace to admire the lanterns only the court, to avoid the disaster. Emperor read letter, immediately ordered the palace of the tonight all people will be out of the palace lanterns.

From then on, there is a 15 to admire the lanterns became a convention in China, everyone call this day "Lantern Festival".

中国有很多很多的传统节日，例如：端午节、中秋节、重阳节等等。元宵节是我最喜欢的节日，因为在那天，我能看见各种各样的花灯。

那么，元宵节为什么要赏花灯呢?这里面还流传着一个美丽的传说呢!

话说古时候某一年的正月十五，一个文人在皇宫的花园中散步。突然，他听见从走廊那边传来了哭泣的声音，便走过去看个究竟。

原来是一个宫女在椅子上哭泣。文人问她：“你为什么哭呀?”宫女说：“我叫元宵宫女，这几天过来，我想回家看一看父母。可是，皇宫中不同意宫女出宫。”听了这话，文人非常同情她，就为她想了一个好主意。

文人骑马出宫，来到大街上。他对人们说：“今晚，火神降临人间，你们都要在门上挂一个小灯笼，谁不挂，谁家就会发生火灾。”文人又给皇上写了一封信，信上面说，今天晚上皇宫中会发生大火灾。只有宫中所有人都出宫赏花灯，才能避免这个灾难。皇上看完信，立即下令皇宫的所有人在今晚都要出宫赏花灯。

从此，正有十五赏花灯便成为了中国的一种习俗，大家都把这一天称为“元宵节”。

Im looking forward to, looking forward to, the Lantern Festival finally came. After eat the family reunion dinner, cousin, cousin and I couldnt wait to come to zhuge bagua village road.

Only listen ear came the sound of "crack, crack", was originally the villagers set off fireworks and bundles smoking gun toward the straight at the sky, rushed to the air becomes a beautiful fireworks, fireworks colourful, adorn the entire night sky colorful, and at that time, the fireworks just vanished into thin air.

When I was immersed in the joy of the fireworks in the world, in the distance there is gong to play the drums. "Dragon lantern come!" I shouted loudly. See two clever now merrily dancing all the way to come over, also from time to time around a fiery red ball rotation, as a real dragon. Ive been looking forward to the arrival of the bench dragon, only after a while, the dragon lantern team came to the street, vastly dragon lantern is made of bamboo and transparent paper, eyes are made of light bulbs, shining in the night sky, like two stars in the sky. Is the body of the dragon with a piece of a bench, pick up the bench with POTS of flowers decorated, I carefully counted a total of 46 section, "long!" I exclaimed. The dragon in the cheers of the people and sometimes wound, sometimes hovering around, imposing manner is very spectacular.

Tonight is really a good night, it left a good memory for me.

我盼望着，盼望着，元宵节终于来临了。吃过团圆饭后，我和表弟、表妹就迫不及待地来到诸葛八卦村的大马路上。马路上早已人山人海，人声鼎沸。只听耳边传来“噼啪、噼啪”的响声，原来是村民们燃放起了烟花，一束束烟炮朝着天空直冲，冲到半空中就变成了美丽的烟花，烟花五彩缤纷，把整个夜空点缀得绚丽多彩，一时间，烟花就消失得无影无踪。

当我还沉浸在欢乐的烟花世界里时，远处传来了敲锣打鼓声。“龙灯来了!”我大声叫喊着。只见两条机灵的布龙一路欢快地舞动过来，还时不时地围着一个火红火红的球旋转，好像真正的小龙一样。我心里好期盼板凳龙的到来，只过一会儿工夫，龙灯队伍浩浩荡荡地来到大街上了，龙灯头是用竹子和透明的纸扎的，眼睛是用灯泡做成的，在夜空中一闪一闪，就像天上的两颗星星。龙的身体是用一张一张板凳接起来的，板凳上用一盆盆花装饰着，我仔细地数了一下，共有46节呢，“好长啊!”我惊叹道。巨龙在人们的欢呼声中时而蜿蜒前行，时而盘旋绕行，气势非常壮观。

看完了舞龙，我在池塘边燃放起了孔明灯，爸爸点燃了孔明灯中心的蜡烛，它就渐渐地膨胀了起来。我一放手，孔明灯就缓缓地上升了，带着我的心愿越升越高，到了最后就消失在夜空。

今晚真是一个美好的夜晚，它给我留下了美好的回忆。

正月十五元宵节，整个城市都沉浸在欢天喜地的过节气氛中。

晚上吃过香喷喷的桂花汤圆后，我和爸爸妈妈一起去吴山广场赏花灯。一路上我看见马路两边都张灯结彩，连河坊街两侧挂满了红灯笼，其中有一家店的大门口和屋檐下挂的是竹灯笼，仿佛又回到了宋代。看着这些我想是不是宋代过元宵也要如此挂满灯笼?

不一会儿，来到了吴山广场。这里的人就像潮水一样涌进来。一进广场大门两侧都布置了各式各样的彩灯，走到里面我看见了六组大型彩灯，主题是“八匹骏马灯”象征着策马扬鞭飞腾之意。旁边几组彩灯有福娃、鲤鱼，鲤鱼象征着年年有鱼，而那福娃开心骑在马背上象征着马上有福。人群中有不少人挥舞着闪闪发亮的荧光棒，让整个广场散发着流光异彩。
