Judging from the traditional Spring Festival culture in China, Lantern Festival is actually an important part of the Spring Festival. The ancient custom of Spring Festival in China lasted for more than half a month. The long Spring Festival has to go through three stages: preparing for the New Year, celebrating the New Year and celebrating the New Year. From the 23rd day of the lunar calendar, it is not until the 15th day of the first month that Lantern Festival is played, and eating jiaozi is considered as Chinese New Year. If we compare the trilogy movement, the Lantern Festival, which ended in the New Year, is the climax of China Spring Festival trilogy.
Nowadays, many people are lamenting that the "taste of the year" is getting weaker and weaker, and the folk custom of the New Year Festival is gradually drifting away. In fact, the cultural elements of the Spring Festival itself can nourish people's hearts and make people realize the aesthetic value and the meaning of life in nostalgia. If the "flavor of the year" really fades, what kind of nostalgic content about the traditional cultural customs of the Spring Festival can our descendants have in the future? We have no reason to ignore and neglect our traditional customs of the Spring Festival. The purpose of holding colorful Lantern Festival folk activities is to enrich the flavor of Lantern Festival with traditional culture and save the cultural diversity of the Spring Festival.
The Spring Festival needs management, creation, folk activities, the participation of social forces, the investment of officials and people, the combination with spiritual strength and fresh content. The so-called "taste of the year" is actually a kind of "taste of culture", so the taste of the year is both a kind of culture and a kind of fun, and everyone needs to create it himself.
The official said that it is necessary to continue to inherit and carry forward the Spring Festival culture, carry forward the cultural connotation and connotation of the Spring Festival, hold more performances, exhibitions and education on various forms of Spring Festival customs, carry out effective traditional cultural education on the Spring Festival, restore the original appearance of the Spring Festival, a national participatory festival, and change the negative practice of celebrating New Year's Eve with a Spring Festival Evening, and let everyone really participate in the festival with their hearts. Only with the joint efforts of the whole people can we complete the transformation from material needs to spiritual and cultural desires in the Spring Festival, so that everyone can feel the strong flavor of the New Year and feel the charm and happiness of traditional culture.
