Introduction to the Formation of the Lantern FestivalThe formation of the Lantern Festival has a long process, and its roots are in the ancient folk custom of lighting lanterns and praying for blessings. According to general information and folk legends, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was already given importance in the Western Han Dynasty. However, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month truly became a national folk festival after the Han and Wei Dynasties. The rise of the custom of lighting lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is also related to the eastward spread of Buddhism. Buddhism flourished during the Tang Dynasty, and officials and common people generally "lit lanterns to worship Buddha" on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Buddhist lanterns then spread throughout the people. Since the Tang Dynasty, hanging lanterns during the Lantern Festival has become a legal requirement. |
