History

Until the Sui Dynasty in the sixth century,

Emperor Yangdi invited envoys from other countries to

China to e the colorful lighted lanterns and enjoy

the gala(节日的，庆贺的)performances.

By the beginning of the Tang Dynasty in the

venth century, the lantern displays would last three

days. The emperor also lifted the curfew(宵禁令),

allowing the people to enjoy the festive lanterns day

This day's important activity is watching lanterns.

Throughout the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), Buddhism

flourished in China. One emperor heard that Buddhist

monks would watch sarira, or remains from the

cremation of Buddha's body, and light lanterns to

worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month,

so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace

and temples to show respect to Buddha on this day.

Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a grand

festival among mon people and its influence expanded

the paper out and go to the lantern owners to check

their answer. If they are right, they will get a

little gift. The activity emerged during people's

enjoyment of lanterns in the Song Dynasty (960-1279).

As riddle guessing is interesting and full of wisdom,

it has bee popular among all social strata.
