The fifteenth day of the first month is a traditional festival of our

Chinese nation. At this moment, my heart has been hooked by the rich dinner. Who

makes today the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month!

"The moon is round and round on the 15th day..." this classic song is

around my ears again. Listen... At this time, I have come to my grandparents

house: "Grandpa, grandma, happy Lantern Festival!"

"Wow" my eyes fly away with the fragrance and catch a large piece of meat

again, hee hee!

After dinner, dusk shrouded everything around us, so we decided to go to

Swan square to enjoy the moon.

As I walk, the moon also walks. If I walk fast, it also walks fast; I walk

slowly, so does it. As soon as I looked up, a round, large and high disc hung in

the air, as if it were the most dazzling star in the sky. The surrounding stars

were not shy and comparable with the moon. It seemed to say, "you see, you have

dominated all the glory of the 15th, how can you let me shine!"

Suddenly, my eyes were fascinated by the fascinating riddle guessing. I

quickly took my family to join the fun.

"There is a prize if you guess right, there is a prize if you guess right!"

At this time, my uncle opened his voice and attracted people heartily. Before

waiting for my uncle to finish, the visitors had already begun to grab

mysteries. Some secretly turned over reference books, others discussed with each

other, or enlightened, and happily competed for prizes. It was so lively!

As the night gets deeper and deeper, there are more and more people playing

in the square. Adults and children gather together, like the vivid pictures of

the master and the hot partners, spreading their troubles and playing

"Crazy".

Suddenly, I dont know where there is a strong smell of sleeves. Oh, my

mother peeled off this sweet and delicious thing, and the juice penetrated from

it. Wow, its so fragrant! I quickly took a bite, um, a word: "incense"! Its

still slowly aftertaste after eating!

It was getting late. I looked at the people who were playing hide and seek,

playing balloons, guessing lantern riddles and setting off fireworks

正月十五，是我们中华民族的传统节日，此时此刻，我的心早已被那丰盛的晚餐给勾去了谁让今天是正月十五元宵节呢!

“十五的月亮圆又圆……”这首经典歌曲又在我耳边围绕，听着听着……这时已来到了我的爷爷奶奶家了：“爷爷，奶奶，元宵节快乐!”

“哇”我的眼随着香味飞去，捞上一大块肉再说，嘻嘻!

吃过晚饭，夜暮便笼罩了周围的一切，我们便决定去天鹅广场赏月。

我一边走，月亮也一边走，我走快，它也走快;我走慢，它也走慢。一抬头，一个又圆又大又高的大圆盘吊在空中，仿佛是天上最耀眼的一颗明星，周围的星星也不羞涩，与月亮互相媲美，仿佛在说：“你看，十五的光彩全被你一个霸了，怎么也得让我沾光沾光!”

突然，我的眼被吸人眼睛的猜灯谜给迷住了，我连忙拉着家人去凑热闹。

“猜对有奖，猜对有奖!”此时，叔叔拉开了嗓门，尽情地招引人们，没等位叔叔说完，游玩的人们早已开始抢迷谜了，有的偷偷翻工具书，有的则互相探讨，或开窍了，高高兴兴地竞换奖品去了，好热闹!

夜越来越深，广场的游玩人们也愈多，大人小孩们交集在一起，像大师手下的生动图画，又好似热火朝天的伙伴，在洒开烦恼“疯”玩。

突然，不知从哪里飘来一股浓浓的袖子香味，哦，原来妈妈剥开了这香甜可口的东西，果汁从里面渗透出来，哇，好香呀!我连忙咬上了一口，嗯，一个字：“香”!吃完了还在慢慢回味呢!

时候不早了，我又望了望正在捉迷藏，打气球，猜灯谜，放烟火的人们……

我编了一个关于元宵节的传说，大家听听看，我是不是很会说故事呢?

传说在很久很久以前，宇宙中有一个地方，名叫元宵岛的地方，他们跟我们最大不同的地方，就是非常的爱吃汤圆，不管早、中、晚餐都要吃汤圆，有趣的是，那里的汤圆都是飘在半空中，想吃多少都有，吃到你撑死为止。

有一天，有两个小朋友阿元和阿宵，突然灵机一动，把要给国王的汤圆，拿去油炸，没想到国王吃了后，居然说很好吃。

从今以后，人民都变成吃炸汤圆，并且纪念阿元和阿宵，所以把他们挂掉的那天取名为元宵。

夜深了，赏花灯的人们脸上都洋溢着满足，幸福，惬意的神情离开了。

There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.

But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and

cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the

higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light

each year.

One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven

in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny

of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided

when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.

Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the

emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to

bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of

the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he

proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would

last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.

Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the

Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of

the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of

entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which

they pray for good fortune.

Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival

speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted

and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because

the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy

the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this

plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.

The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their

imminent destruction.

However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should

hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and

explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the

village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar

day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw

that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the

Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.

From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every

year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and

fireworks.

There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is

about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the

emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying

and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her

and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was

Yuan-Xiao.

She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the

palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the

chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern

promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern

left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised

himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for

their fortunes.

But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th

lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and

asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of

Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in

red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her

mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people

asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to

check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from

Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.

I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You

should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to

the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in

trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on

the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.

Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that

the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often

cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.

Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give

an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the

same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang

red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people

outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern

decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be

deceived.

Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed

the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th

lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of

noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into

the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern

and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her

parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han

Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since

Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao

Festival.

Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.

Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns

were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer

has such implications.

Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern

parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional

Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), another popular activity at this festival is

guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang

Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant

harvest, prosperity and love.

Make yuanxiao lantern is our Chinese traditional habits. Happy Lantern Festival arrived in an instant, the streets decorated, a beaming.

闹元宵赏花灯是我们中国人的传统习惯。快乐的元宵节转眼就到了，大街上张灯结彩，一片喜气洋洋。

晚餐过后，我和爸爸、妈妈开开心心一起开车去顺峰山公园看花灯。我们来到顺峰山公园大门前，欢迎我们的是一座栩栩如生的“凤凰”。“凤凰”的两旁还有两朵花，两朵花里还有金色大字，左边的是万事胜意，另外一边是如意吉祥。“凤凰”还一时闪蓝光，一时闪红光，一时又变色，色彩缤纷，变幻无穷，充满节日喜庆气氛。我们开车进去，发现车多得可以摆一个迷宫都行了，想找一个车位停都有点困难。我看见顺峰山公园不但停车位是快停满了，就是公园里人数也多得惊人，人山人海。我发现游人中有的是我们学校的同学，有的是从千里迢迢赶过来的外地游客，还有的是附近的居民来到这里跳舞健身。大部分的人都是来看元宵花灯的，只有少部分是坚持锻炼的居民。

广场前面就是花灯展示区，五彩缤纷的花灯在夜色中闪耀着迷人的光彩。这次花灯不仅环保，而且五光十色，光彩夺目。我们发现今年的花灯响应了环保低碳，全部是用废物利用精心制作的。就拿“一帆风顺”来说吧，用了废报纸和旧绳子拼出一艘帆船，比喻今年顺顺利利，得到了人们的喜爱，所以得到了银奖。我最喜欢的花灯还是“蛇年平安”的花灯。它是一个苹果形状的网状灯笼，中间有一条蛇突出一个舌头，造型特别可爱。那个灯笼用的材料是竹子等环保材料，做得那么精美别致，创意无限。长大以后我一定要像做“蛇年平安”花灯的人一样，学会环保，用无限的想象力做一些环保的小制作，支持环境保护，做一个有道德有创意的文明人。

有句古话说得好：“正月十五闹元宵”。这句话生动地体现出了元宵节最大的特点，对，元宵节就是亲戚朋友从五湖四海赶来欢乐地聚在一块儿，吃上一碗热气腾腾的汤圆，结伴到街上观看人们举行的盛大的舞龙游行，观赏由平民老百姓创作的歌舞节目，欣赏那夜空中的光彩夺目的火树银花。

The Lantern Festival is our traditional festival in China. The custom of the Lantern Festival mainly mainly eats dumplings.

This years Lantern Festival and our family is not the same as before. Before we go to the supermarket to buy, others are ready to go home as long as in the cooked can eat, but the feast is in is too boring. So, this years Lantern Festival, our own package dumplings.

I followed my grandma learn step by step. First prepared a pack of glutinous rice bowl. Pour into a large bowl or in a seven over ten of warm water, turn the face evenly. Surface prepared, the filling. This is made of black sesame paste, buy when filling this is a fast, need to use a knife cut a small piece of a small, not too small, not too big. To rub his piece by piece into a round shape.

Surface and fillings are ready, the package is about to begin. Choke a face down, start with dough knead into a flat cake shape, took a first in the middle, push the flank face up, gradually became a circle, then use hand to knead a pinch the uneven places, rub into a ball, then rolled up on a few laps, a rice dumpling is completed.

In this way, one after another the dumplings in my hand was born. The most important thing is that the pot boil. Put a pot of water to boil and then throw the dumplings into the water, cook until the rice dumpling upward drift, water bubble, "begin" is already cooked. Turn off the fire, put the dumplings out, can eat.

Eating dumplings, do your own heart and fruity.

元宵节是我们中国的传统节日。元宵节的习俗主要就以吃汤圆为主。

今年的元宵节我们家和以前过的不一样。以前，我们是去超市买别人已经做好了的，回家只要放在过了煮好了就可以吃了，可是那样过节是在是太没意思了。所以，今年的元宵节，我们自己包汤圆。

我跟着姥姥一步一步地学着。先把准备好的一包糯米倒入一个较大的碗或盆里，倒入十分之七的温水，把这个面调均匀后放好。面做好了，该弄馅了。这次是用黑芝麻馅的，买馅的时候这个是一大快，要先用刀切的一小块一小块的，不要太小，也不要太大。再把他一块一块的搓成圆形。

面和馅都做好了，就要开始包了。先从面团上掐一块面下来，捏成扁饼形，拿一粒先放在最中间，把旁边的面往上推，逐渐变成一个圆，再用手捏一捏不平的地方，搓成一个团，再在面上滚几圈，一个汤圆就完成了。

就这样，一个又一个的汤圆在我的手中诞生了。最重要的是下锅煮。先把锅里的水烧开，然后把汤圆扔进水里，煮到汤圆向上漂，水“咕嘟咕嘟”冒泡时，就是已经煮熟了。把火关了，把汤圆捞出来，就可以吃了。

吃着自己做的汤圆，心里也甜滋滋的。

Again the fifteenth day of the first, one of the most lively festival Lantern Festival in our country, the day we have a happy family.

The significance of the Lantern Festival has a custom is to eat dumplings, let every reunion, grandma "decentralization" tonight, give me an important task of boiled dumplings for execution. I regard it as a very important task, for fear of cooking is broken, so my heart as if with a small rabbit "beat". I recall past experiences of grandmother taught me to cook dumplings, glutinous rice powder harmonic conversion in boiling water first, pay attention to the water not much, much more will dilute; Also cannot too little, not sticky. Then take a piece of leather palm rub into a circular, reoccupy finger above by a nest, the sesame stuffing, mashed do inside "package". When put stuffing must not the etheric greedy, otherwise it will give skin "stomach" to be broken. After finally wrapped, can begin. I boiled dumplings as grandma said the four tips: "boiling water pot, slow water, cold water, frequently change water" so their hard-won will do a good job of yuanxiao put into the water. Before long, can dish up, just open the lid, I saw a white dumplings floating in the water, cling to each other, like the great pearl bead, make my mouth water, will they scoop into a bowl, smell the delicious taste, cant help to bite, is delicious, sweet and delicious.

I am excited, boiled dumplings for the first time you get such a high evaluation, Im flattered.

Her delicious homemade dumplings, feel good, so happy in my heart. Looking forward to next year to do better when the Lantern Festival to eat dumplings for you.

又到了正月十五，我国最热闹的节日之一元宵节，那一天我们一家过得其乐融融。

元宵节有个习俗就是吃汤圆，寓意着让每家团团圆圆，今晚奶奶“权力下放”，把煮汤圆的重要任务交给我来执行。我把它看成一件十分重大的任务，生怕煮破了，因此心里好像揣着一只小兔子“怦怦”直跳。我想起以前奶奶教我煮汤圆的经验：先将糯米粉用开水调和成皮，注意水不可以太多，多了会过稀;也不能过少，少了没粘性。然后取一块皮在手掌中搓成圆形，再用手指在上面按一个窝，把芝麻捣碎做馅，放在里面“包”好。放馅时一定不可以太贪心，否则会把皮的“肚子”给撑破的。终于包好后，可以下锅了。我又按照奶奶说的煮汤圆的四个诀窍：“开水下锅，慢水煮，点冷水，勤换水”于是便将自己辛辛苦苦做好的元宵放进水里。没多久，可以起锅了，掀开盖子，只见一个个雪白的汤圆漂浮在水上，彼此紧贴着，好像一粒粒大珍珠，看得我直流口水，将它们舀到碗里，闻着那香喷喷的味道，忍不住先咬了一口，真好吃啊，又香又糯。我刚把汤圆端上桌，大家就狼吞虎咽的吃开了。大家高兴地吃完了我煮的汤圆，“美食家”奶奶还给我打了一个九十五分，夸我长大了，懂事了。我兴奋不已，第一次煮汤圆就得到这么高的评价，我心里美滋滋的。

品尝着自己亲手做的汤圆，觉得特别好吃，心里特别开心。盼望着明年元宵节时再做更好吃的汤圆给大家品尝。

正月十五吃元宵，在我国是由来已久习俗。人们在元宵节吃汤圆，实际上是思念亲人、渴望团圆的意思。

Eating Tangyuan is an important tradition for the Lantern Festival. Tangyuan, also know as yuanxiao, is a Chinese food made from glutinous rice flour mixed with a small amount of water to form balls and is then cooked and served in boiling water.

吃汤圆是元宵节的一项重要习俗。汤圆，又名“元宵”，是由糯米粉等做的球形食品，一般有馅料，煮熟带汤吃。

Traditionally, the balls come stuffed with sweet black sesame paste, although the fillings can vary. Tangyuan are eaten during Lantern Festival because of a homophone for union.

通常用黑芝麻做馅，但又不仅限于黑芝麻。据说元宵象征合家团圆美好，吃元宵意味着新的一年合家幸福、团团圆圆，所以正月十五元宵必备。

Decorating and hanging lanterns is the main tradition of the festival, with lanterns big and small hung around households, parks, streets and other public spaces. Red lanterns of various shape and type will attract countless visitors to watch.

正月十五赏花灯是元宵节必有的另一项习俗。人们把大大小小的花灯悬挂于家门口、公园、街道或者其他公共场所。各式各样的红灯笼将会吸引无数的游客前来观赏。

Solving riddles on lanterns has been a popular tradition since the Song Dynasty. People write riddles on paper and stick them to the lanterns and if someone guesses correctly, they can pull the riddle off. The notes often contain messages of good fortune and wishes.

从宋代开始，猜灯谜就是一项非常受欢迎的民俗活动。人们把谜语写到纸上并悬之于灯，供人猜射。通常，谜底都是各种吉祥话和祝福。

The lion dance is one of the oldest traditions to celebrate the Chinese New Year. In ancient times, people regarded the lion as a symbol of bravery and strength and believed the dance could drive away bad fortune to protect people and their livestock. The custom has continued to the modern day and lion dances are performed at important events on the Chinese calendar, such as the Lantern Festival, to bring good luck.

舞狮子是另一项庆祝新春的古老习俗。在古代，人们把狮子作为勇气和力量的象征，认为舞狮可以消灾降福。所以舞狮子的传统就延续至今，并且每逢佳节或庆典，如元宵节都会以舞狮子来祈求好运。

Dragon dance is a form of traditional dance and performance in Chinese culture. Like the lion dance it is most often seen in festival celebration. The dance is performed by a team of dancers who manipulate a long flexible figure of a dragon using poles positioned at regular intervals along the length of the dragon.

舞龙灯是中国独具特色的民俗活动。与舞狮子一样，每逢佳节，人们都要耍龙灯。表演者由数十人组成，每人用一杆间隔支撑起一条长龙。

Chinese dragons are a symbol of China, and they are believed to bring good luck to people, therefore the longer the dragon in the dance, the more luck it will bring to the community.

龙是中国的象征，相传龙能够带来吉祥和好运。耍的龙灯越长，就越能给当地人民带来好运。因此，每逢春节、元宵节，人们都会举行耍龙灯的活动。

Walking on stilts, or Cai Gaoqiao, is another popular traditional performance for the Lantern Festival, especially in Northern China. According to the archives, our Chinese ancestors began using stilts to help them gather fruits from trees. This practical use of stilts gradually developed into a kind of folk dance.

踩高跷是元宵节的另外一项重要民俗，尤其是在北方地区。根据记载，我们的祖先踩高跷是为了从树上摘果子。之后，高跷就发展成为一种群众性技艺表演艺术。

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.

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”。

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。

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。

The Festival of Lanterns takes place at the end of the Chinese New Year Celebration, on the fifteenth day of the first moon. Lanterns have been part of Chinese life for centuries so its not surprising to see a festival of lanterns.

People usually hang lanterns in the gardens, outside the houses, and on the boats. These lanterns are signposts to guide guests and spirits of ancestors to the Lunar celebration. After a sumptuous fifteen-day feast, these lanterns light the way for the spirits back to the world beyond.

Silk, paper and plastic lanterns vary in shape and size and are usually multi-colored. Some are in the shapes of butterflies, birds, flowers, and boats. Other are shaped like dragon, fruit and animal symbols of that year. The most popular type of lantern is the horse-racing one, in which figures or animals rotate around the vertical axis of the lantern.

The special food for the Lantern Festival is Yuen Sin or Tong Yuen. These are round dumplings made with sticky rice flour. They can be filled and served as a sweet snack or made plain and cooked in a soup with vegetables, meat and dried shrimp. The round shape of the dumpling is a symbol of wholeness, completeness and unity.

The Lantern Festival is an occasion for families to get together and for everyone--young, old, rich and poor to have fun.
