The Lantern Festival or Yuanxiao Jie is a traditional Chinese festival, which is on the 15th of the first month of the Chinese New Year. The festival marks the end of the celebrations of the Chinese New Year.
Chinese started to celebrate the Lantern Festival from the Han Dynasty . Like most other Chinese festivals, there is also a story behind the Festival. It is also believed that the festival has Taoist origins.
This is a festival for people having fun. On the night of the festival, people go on streets with a variety of lanterns under the full moon, watching lions or dragon dancing, playing Chinese riddles and games, and lighting up firecrackers. There is really a lot of fun for the young and the old.
Yuanxiao (glutinous rice ball) or Tangyuan is the special food for the Lantern Festival. It is believed that Yuanxiao is named after a palace maid, Yuanxiao, of Emperor Wu Di of the Han Dynasty. Yuanxiao is a kind of sweet dumpling, which is made with sticky rice flour filled with sweet stuffing.
Yuanxiao is sticky, sweet and round in shape, symbolizing family unity, completeness and happiness.
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 year's 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 pudding and zong zi (glutinous rice wrapped up in reed 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.

With a loud bang, fireworks explode in the air, some like a round smile, some like a red star, and some like Numbers. I was dazzled. The best of all was the red lanterns that waddled in the sky for a long time. What a happy day!

元宵节是在阴历正月的十五，通常在阳历的二月或三月。早在西汉时期（公元前206年至公元25年），它已经成为具有重要意义的节日。

在汉文帝时，已下令将正月十五定为元宵节。汉武帝时，“太一神”的祭祀活动定在正月十五。(太一：主宰宇宙一切之神)。司马迁创建“太初历”时，就已将元宵节确定为重大节日。
另有一说是元宵燃灯的*俗起源于道教的“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。
元宵节的节期与节俗活动，是随历史的发展而延长、扩展的。就节期长短而言，汉代才一天，到唐代已为三天，宋代则长达五天，明代更是自初八点灯，一直到正月十七的夜里才落灯，整整十天。与春节相接，白昼为市，热闹非凡，夜间燃灯，蔚为壮观。特别是那精巧、多彩的灯火，更使其成为春节期间娱乐活动的高潮。至清代，又增加了舞龙、舞狮、跑旱船、踩高跷、扭秧歌等“百戏”内容，只是节期缩短为四到五天。

每年农历的正月十五日，春节刚过，迎来的就是*的传统节日——元宵节。元宵主要的活动就是看灯。东汉明帝时期，明帝提倡佛教，听说佛教有正月十五日僧人观佛舍利，点灯敬佛的做法，就命令这一天夜晚在皇宫和寺庙里点灯敬佛，令士族庶民都挂灯。以后
这种佛教礼仪节日逐渐形成民间盛大的节日。该节经历了由宫廷到民间，由中原到全国的发展过程。
直到今天，元宵点灯的*俗仍然在*的各地流传的，各式各样美丽的花灯在这一天都会点亮，孩子们提着自制的灯笼走街串巷，非常高兴。
猜灯谜也是元宵节的一项重要活动，花灯的主人会将谜面写在灯笼上，挂在门口，如果有人可以猜中，就能得到小小的礼物。这项活动最早起源于宋朝，因为谜语能启迪智慧又饶有兴趣，所以流传过程中深受社会各阶层的欢迎。
民间过元宵节吃元宵的*俗。元宵由糯米制成，或实心，或带馅。馅有豆沙、白糖、山楂、各类果料等，食用时煮、煎、蒸、炸皆可。起初，人们把这种食物叫“浮圆子”，后来又叫“汤团”或“汤圆”，这些名称“团圆”字音相*，取团圆之意，象征全家人团团圆圆，和睦幸福，人们也以此怀念离别的亲人，寄托了对未来生活的美好愿望。随着时间的推移，元宵节的活动越来越多，白天有耍龙灯、耍狮子、踩高跷、划旱船扭秧歌、打太*鼓等传统民俗表演。到了夜晚，除了五颜六色的美花灯之外，还有艳丽多姿的烟火。大多数家庭会在春节时留下一些烟花等到元宵节这天燃放，而一些地方*也会举办烟花大会，当新年的第一个月圆之夜在盛大的烟火表演中来临时，人们都陶醉在这令人难忘了烟花与皎洁的明月中。
今天，是元宵节，我们一家三口去观花赏月，不过花是烟花。
月亮圆圆的，像个大汤圆，放在天空这个大玉盘中。月色朦胧，因为月亮姑娘害羞地蒙上了面纱。
空中，礼花绽放，五颜六色真是美不胜收，有的像菊花绽放出无数层花瓣，有的像小蛇蜿蜒伸向空中，还有的像喷泉喷溅出无数彩色的浪花……，整个天空是一个美丽的大花园，也是一个大音乐厅奏出悦耳动听的曲子，听！嘭嘭！呲呲！咚咚！……真是火树银花闹元宵，红红火火过大年呀！
最后我们放了一个孔明灯，它带着我们的希望飞向天空，越飞越高，最后化作一颗红色的小星星。
今天是团圆的节日兔年顶呱呱！，我希望全国小朋友去观花赏月兔年顶呱呱！
一年一度的元宵佳节来临了，我们来到古城*遥赏灯。
*遥城里张灯结彩，有浓浓的节日气氛。这里的灯真多啊。让人看的眼花缭乱。这里的灯真亮啊！从远处看，火树银花，灯火辉煌的一片。这里的灯真美啊！有的是张牙舞爪的九龙戏珠，有的是活灵活现的四大名著的故事情节。有的是可爱机灵的昆虫宝贝等等。其中最多的还是憨态可掬的老鼠灯，形象生动的老鼠嫁女，老鼠拜年，鼠年好运来，祝福大家新春愉快，万事大吉。这么多花灯中最令我难忘的还是福娃灯。五个吉祥物做着各种动作，温柔的贝贝在划船，憨厚的晶晶在举重，大哥哥欢欢在欢迎各位游客，驰骋如飞的迎迎在跑步，善良的妮妮在做体操，五个可爱的福娃预示着奥运会一定会圆满成功。
周围的爆竹声不绝于耳，天空中的焰火五彩缤纷。“一夜花灯醉，只缘春意浓。”这高科技的花灯真令人流连忘返啊！
“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*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*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范围更加盛况空前，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*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*代，这一*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*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。
每年农历的正月十五日，春节刚过，迎来的就是*汉族的传统节日之一的元宵节，正月是农历的元月，古人称夜为“宵”，所以称正月十五为元宵节。正月十五日是一年中第一个月圆之夜，也是一元复始，大地回春的夜晚，人们对此加以庆祝，也是庆贺新春的延续。元宵节又被称为“上元节”。按*民间的传统，在这天上皓月高悬的夜晚，人们要点起彩灯万盏，以示庆贺。出门赏月、燃灯放焰、喜猜灯谜、共吃元宵，合家团聚、同庆佳节，其乐融融。上元，含有新的一年第一次月圆之夜的意思。上元节的由来，《岁时杂记》记载说，这是因循道教的陈规。道教曾把一年中的正月十五称为上元节，七月十五为中元节，十月十五为下元节，合称“三元”。汉末道教的重要派别五斗米道崇奉的神为天官、地官、水官，说天官赐福，地官赦罪，水官解厄，并以三元配三官，说上元天官正月十五日生，中元地官七月十五日生，下元水官十月十五日生。这样，正月十五日就被称为上元节。南宋吴自牧在《梦粱录》中说：“正月十五日元夕节，乃上元天官赐福之辰。”说天官赐福，地官赦罪，而元宵节俗真正的动力是因为它处在新的时间点上，人们充分利用这一特殊的时间阶段来表达自己的生活愿望。
我最喜欢过元宵节了。
这天，举国上下，一片欢乐的景象，大街小巷，人头攒动，简直是车水马龙。
早上，我早早地起了床，唤醒了老爸妈妈，要他（她）们和我去府前广场看街头文艺表演。不一会儿，我们就到了府前广场。
府前广场早已挤满了密密麻麻的人群，把*门前挤个水泄不通。表演开始了，有音乐，有舞蹈等精彩无比的节目。
下午，我又和老爸妈妈去坐了飞机、火车，他们说我是个大小孩，可我一点儿也不不好意思，反而更是眉开眼笑。
晚上，我和老爸妈妈吃元宵，可好吃了，有豆沙的、黑芝麻的、南瓜的、花生的……真是色色俱全、美不胜收，让人吃了还想吃。
我们吃完饭又去广场看礼花，礼花五颜六色，五彩缤纷，有大的有小的，还有中间的，有圆的，有长条的……“应有尽有”。公园里面，有卖孔明灯的，它们那吆喝声和叫卖声交叉在一起，“响彻云宵，如雷贯耳”，还有200多只孔明灯飞在高空，真让人留连忘返！
20xx的元宵节，我永远难忘。

元宵节逛灯会，猜灯谜是我国独有的富有民族风格的一种娱乐方式。昨天就是元宵节，晚上6：30，我们部分小记者去工人文化宫看花灯，猜灯谜。
一到工人文化宫，首先映入眼帘的就是五颜六色，形状各异的花灯了。其中就有我们小记者们亲手制作的低碳花灯与有趣灯谜。这些花灯有玉兔灯，吉祥灯，福字灯，剪纸灯，应有尽有，虽然说不上巧夺天工，却也是栩栩如生，惟妙惟肖，凝聚着牛通社小记者们的心血，传递着小记者们的祝福。我还看到了童涵初哥哥制作的花灯，别看他人胖乎乎的，这双手却也是十分灵巧，做出来的花灯也是别有风味，让我们很惊讶。
我们还猜了灯谜。这些灯谜汇集了各方面的知识，还真有点难呢。大人们孩子们齐心协力，有的在独自思考，有的在背诵唐诗，有的发短信询问，有的上网查询，恨不得十八般武艺都使出来，这时候用一句话来形容，那可真是：书到用时方恨少啊！经过努力，我们终于猜出了一个又一个灯谜，盖到了一些图章，大家看着这些来之不易的图章，高兴极了。
活动结束了，抬头望天空，一轮圆月若隐若现，大人们忍不住拿起相机按下快门，留下精彩画面。元宵之夜，快乐无比。
一年一度的元宵节到了，身边洋溢着热闹的节日气氛，随处都能听见礼花炮竹声。
夜幕降临了，礼花炮竹声便炸开了元宵之夜看花观灯的景象，迎来了一片繁华的夜景。
突然，爸爸跑过来催促着我赶快下楼放烟花，听见这话，我便来了劲，赶快“飞奔”下了楼。只见爸爸妈妈接二连三地从车库里搬出许多烟花，还不时在车库里察看还有没有剩余的。天，这可是把咱家的“财产”全部都“扛”出来了呀！这时，爸爸拿出打火机，小心翼翼地点起了火，还用手在边上为打火机“掩护”着。“点着了！”爸爸在远处朝我们大喊着。我与妈妈此时都不约而同地仰望着天空。天空不时出现一个大礼花；不时出现红色、黄色、蓝色的流星雨；不时出现一个个排列整齐的小飞碟；不时又出现了一条条小鱼在天空中自由地遨游、玩耍……这些烟花使我看得眼花缭乱、目瞪口呆。这些美妙的景色是已经不能再用语言来形容了。
不一会儿，我上了楼，仔细欣赏CCTV元宵晚会的经典节目，这些节目中，小沈阳唱的《大海》令我开怀大笑；刘谦表演的魔术让我为他鼓掌，竖起了大拇指；他们都获得了春节联欢晚会节目的一等奖，让我也为他们而高兴与自豪吧！
将*十点时，我爬在窗台上欣赏那又大又圆又亮的月亮。虽然像一个害羞的小姑娘只是昙花一现，但是我却明白了什么。
夜深了，我久久不愿离开那窗台，因为我想起了已经过世的太奶奶……
正月十五真热闹，人类猜灯谜、吃元宵、观花灯、放花炮，真是“灯树千光照，明月逐人来”。
来到马路上，眼前的景色简直把我惊呆了。“火树银花不夜天”是最好的写照，白天光秃秃的大树、草地，像变魔术似的鲜活起来。地上小草充满生机，树干的颜色鲜艳极了，有红色的、黄色的、绿色的、还有五彩的，树枝上争奇斗艳，有竞相开放的花朵，有翩翩起舞的蝴蝶，有“嗡嗡”歌唱的蜜蜂，还有的像是流出的甘甜的露珠，它们一闪一闪，像天上的星星洒落下来，和我们一起感受这节日的快乐。
我们随着观灯的人流来到公园的大门。首先，映入眼帘的是两条盘在大门口的栩栩如生的金蛇，金灿灿的非常引人注目，大大的蛇头、粗粗的蛇身、长长的蛇尾，尤其是它那红红的、巨大的蛇信子上，还挂着一个金色的“福”字，像是在预祝人类在新的一年福寿康宁。
再往里走，灯光越来越亮，花灯的样式也越来越多，有的像高大的圣诞树，有的像威武的狮子，有的像飞天巨龙，还有的是鲤鱼跳龙门、龙凤呈祥、五谷丰登。在中心广场，周围挂着一圈红红的灯笼，每个上面都有一条金色的小蛇在跳舞，正中央有一个巨大的花灯，上下都镶有金色的祥云图案，中间的倒“福”字，流光溢彩，红红的灯笼衬托着金色的祥云和“福”字，金光闪闪的祥云和“福”字点缀在灯笼上，一派吉祥和喜庆。我好奇的问：妈妈，“福”字为什么要倒着呢?妈妈边走边说：“福”字倒贴在民间还有一则传说。明太祖朱璋当年用“福”字作暗记准备**。好心的马皇后为消除这场灾祸，令全城大小人家必须在天明之前在自家门上贴上一个“福”字。于是家家门上都贴了“福”字。其中有户人家不识字，竟把“福”字贴倒了。第二天，皇帝派人上街查看，发现家家都贴了“福”字，还有一家把“福”字贴倒了。皇帝听了禀报大怒，立即命令御林军把那家满门抄斩。马皇后一看事情不好，忙对朱元漳说：“那家人知道您今日来访，故意把福字贴倒了，这不是“福到”的意思吗?”皇帝一听有道理，便下令放人，一场大祸终于消除了。从此人类便将福字倒贴起来，一求吉利，二为纪念马皇后。我听了后说：哦，原来还有这么好玩的故事。
我们走着、笑着、观赏着，在这灯的海洋，灯的世界里，到处都充满了幸福和欢乐。
赏花灯、猜灯谜、吃汤圆，是元宵节固有的风俗。其实，古代的元宵节还相当于今天的“情人节”。因为在古代，未婚少女*时是不允许随便出门的，只有元宵节才被允许结伴出门看灯赏玩，未婚男女借着赏花灯可以为自己物色对象，而已订终身的男女也可在元宵之夜秘密相会。
明代著名作家汤显祖传奇小说《紫钗记》中，主人公李益在游赏灯会时拾得紫钗一枝，知是家道中落的霍王千金霍小玉之物，遂借还钗之便，李益和霍小玉二人一见钟情，互相爱慕，共结秦晋之好。而传统戏曲陈三和五娘也是在元宵节赏花灯时一见钟情，乐昌公主与徐德言在元宵夜破镜重圆，《春灯谜》中宇文彦和影娘在元宵订情。这些良缘美眷早已成为千古佳话。从这点来说，元宵节比七夕——让两地分居的夫妻相聚的日子更适合做*的“情人节”。
上元狂欢，私订终身，甚至“野合”寻欢，在宋代城市，已达到了相当的深度。宋代小说家的《张生彩鸾灯传》中，狂欢上元之时，给一位太尉做偏房的李氏，大胆地将写上“得此物有情者，来年上元夜见车前有双鸳鸯灯，可相见”字样的香囊、红绡帕掷于乾明寺殿前，以期求年轻男子。张生拾得这一信物。在来年的上元夜，张生见到一辆挂双鸳鸯灯的香车，他勇敢上前，用诗句向这位未见过面的女子倾诉了衷肠。二人在次夜三鼓时分私奔出城，去苏州开始了新的生活。而《金瓶梅》里的西门庆选了这天晚上偷会李瓶儿;《水浒传》里的宋徽宗也拣这天去会李师师。
元宵节作为古代情人节，还有许多写元宵节的诗词为证。其中辛弃疾的《青玉案·元夕》“众里寻他千百度，蓦然回首，那人却在，灯火阑珊处”。和欧阳修的《生查子·元夕》“月到柳梢头，人约黄昏后”。就是这方面的经典名句，脍炙人口。
辛弃疾饱含脉脉的深情，向人们诉说了元宵佳节的夜晚，火树银花，香车满路，花灯如昼，诗人寻寻觅觅，在千里追寻心中倾慕的佳人，回首处，佳人已远去，只留下诗人独自怅然若失。欧阳修的诗中故事同样发生在这样一个美丽的夜晚，却独不见去年相约的美丽佳人，诗人感伤之深。所以说元宵节也是*古代的“情人节”。
春节是热闹的，幸福的，可元宵节更是我期待的。每到这一天，家家户户都要吃汤圆、赏花灯。
今年的元宵节更是让我难忘，晚上，我们全家早早地吃完香香甜甜的汤圆就赶往城西公园赏灯了。一路上，只见观灯的人群如潮水般从四面八方涌来，他们肩并着肩、牵着手，个个脸上充满了期待与兴奋，路的两边悬挂着喜气洋洋的大红灯笼，还有古色古香的莲花灯、玲珑剔透的绣球灯，小朋友喜爱的“美羊羊”、“喜羊羊”也来参加灯会了，啊！
各式各样的灯看得我眼花缭乱了。忽然，一阵欢快的音乐传来，我和姐姐手牵着手，顺着音乐声从人群中向前挤去，原来是“小虎队”啊，三只小老虎个个精神抖擞、虎虎生威，它们弹着吉他，唱着歌，在祝福人们虎年吉祥，生活更美好，再往前走，一只鲜艳夺目的凤凰特别引人注目，它昂首挺胸，盘绕在旋转灯笼上翩翩起舞，“虎踞龙盘”、“福虎临门”、“龙凤呈祥”……一个个主题花灯把广场装扮得多姿多彩。
今晚的天空没有星星，但无数盏许愿灯，好似点点繁星，它带着人们美好愿望升上空中。天的那边，宛如一个五彩缤纷的世界，天空成了花的海洋，真是姹紫嫣红，群芳斗艳。绚丽的礼花映红了人们幸福的笑脸，我赶紧对妈妈说：“妈妈，快，放起我们的许愿灯吧，我要许下最美好的愿望。”望着缓缓升上空中的许愿灯，我默默地祝福着：祝愿我们的祖国更加繁荣富强，扬中的明天更加美好，祝愿家人健康*安。
多么难忘的元宵之夜啊，我要永远记下这美好的夜晚。
——元宵节的介绍作文 (菁华5篇)
元宵节顾名思义就是全家人在一起团圆的节日。在元宵节这一天全家人都聚在一起吃元宵、看花灯、放烟花、看元宵晚会……
在元宵节这一天吃元宵是*的传统，代表全家人团团圆圆，全家人聚在一起吃元宵，那气氛是热闹而欢乐的。看，奶奶的脸上堆满了笑容，无比开心；爸爸和老叔推杯换盏，喝的兴致正浓；小妹高兴地不知所措；妈妈和老婶也忘记了做饭的疲劳，沉浸在了欢乐之中；我也望着一家人那兴奋、欢乐的表情，我也笑了。
在元宵节的夜晚，人们吃完饭，纷纷都出来看花灯、放烟花、炮竹、一起赏月，在大街上人非常的多，人上人海的。在大街小巷上，满是花灯，各种各样的灯聚在一起五彩缤纷的，在看灯是，又有许多人在前照相，留下了纪念，把一盏盏花灯耳朵特点留在了自己的照片中。
再仰天一看，天上满是烟花，各式各样、五彩缤纷的，有五颜六色合在一起的，还有紫色的、蓝色的、黄色的、红色的、绿色的……多种多样的烟花，有些人出来再远处看烟花是非常漂亮、美丽的，如果在*处看烟花又会有你不一样的景象，是非常壮观的，非常完美的。还有一些在放烟花的，“轰隆”一声一个五彩缤纷的烟花飞上了天空，“扑通”一下开了花，好像一朵花迅速地盛开，又迅速地凋谢一般，在大街上，还有许多商贩在卖东西，有卖烟花、爆竹的；有卖糖葫芦、烧烤的；还有卖各种款式灯笼的，琳琅满目令人目不暇接。人们都聚在一起，脸上都绽放着笑容。
看完灯之后，人们都回家了。在家里看元宵晚会，全家人坐在一起看晚会，一家人子啊一起讨论着哪个节目好，哪个节目不好，还在一起聊天，有愉快地不愉快地，全都说出来，其乐融融。
元宵节之夜是那么地美好，那么地愉快，那么地其乐融融，全家人在一起团团圆圆地都快乐啊！
今天是一年一度的.元宵节，我的耳边不断响着“噼里啪啦”的爆竹声。每个人脸上都洋溢着喜悦的表情，两眼笑得都快眯成一道细缝儿。
晚上，我和姐姐买了许多烟花，一起来闹元宵。我们先点燃“手持瀑布”，我小心翼翼地拿着，因为我从来没有放过“手持瀑布”这种烟花，尽管姐姐一直劝我别怕，但我的心一直怦怦地跳个不停。“手持烟花”开始出花了！朵朵烟花就像天上飘着数不清的片片雪花，让人看得眼花缭乱，又好像天上一闪一闪的小星星，还像淅淅沥沥地毛毛细雨，“手持瀑布”放出的烟花是那样的多，那样的长，那样的美，难怪商家取名叫“手持瀑布”呢！可是“手持瀑布”很快就用完了。我们又开始玩“地妞炮”，姐姐点燃后，“地牛炮”飞快地起来，飞出来的烟花又圆又小，我想：“圆”和“小”合起来叫，不正是“元宵”两字的谐音吗？不知道是不是设计者专门这样做得，还是碰巧？
我们放完了自己买得烟花，觉得还不够过瘾，于是，我们直奔姑奶家看放烟花。到了姑奶家，她家已经摆好烟花，正等着我们呢。开始放烟花了，只见先是冒着小火星，马上，变成了白色菊花的样子，中间还不停的闪动着绿色的小点，然后，越来越高，越来越高，忽然，全体腾空而起，速变成了一片璀璨的降落伞，时不时冒出许多星星点点，有黄的、蓝的、绿的。五颜六色，从天而降，真是壮观极了，漂亮极了！随后，我们几个小孩又玩起了“七彩电火花”，一点燃，“七彩电火花”就发出了“噼里啪啦”的爆竹声，形状像飞溅起来的小水滴，四处乱飞。我一手拿着一个，高兴的跳起舞来，还不停地在空中写着“元宵节快乐”这几个字，沉醉在一片美好之中。好像连院里的几只小狗也被这美丽的场面所吸引，再也不像*常那样汪汪直叫，而是一直盯着美丽的烟花。
这个元宵节我们可是闹得够开心的，这一天，我可真高兴啊！
在去俱乐部广场的路上，熙熙攘攘的人群把我和妈妈淹没了。大路两边高高地挂起一串串的红灯笼，给节日增添了喜庆的气氛。
广场上真是人山人海，*台上锣鼓声阵阵，俱乐部正门上方是“开泰三羊留吉去，闹春灵猴送福来”的春联，正中挂着金猴托“福”。广场东半边是小朋友们表演的歌舞，西半边老年人正在扭秧歌，小朋友们的精彩表演赢得片片掌声，老爷爷老奶奶夸张幽默的动作逗得大家哈哈大笑……
我看得正入迷，忽然一道雪亮的瀑布从天而降，原来是广场上空倒挂的烟花被点燃了，接着地上的火树也开出了五彩夺目的花。半空中是“银河落九天”，地上是“火树银花不夜天”，真好比人间仙境一样！忽然不远处又传来“咚”的一声巨响，一个礼花腾空而起，在空中绽放开一大朵五颜六色的花，哇，真是太美了！礼花弹一个接一个地飞上天，又在天空中变幻成各种形状：有的是杨柳垂下万丝绦，有的是蝴蝶振翅翩翩舞，更奇妙的是有的礼花弹在空中变出了一串串红灯笼，然后随风飘飘悠悠飞向远方。
礼花在空中绽放，地上是欢乐的海洋，又是一个全家团圆的日子。我望着天空中又大又圆的月亮，想起我的爸爸却远在千里之外的大西北，为公司去开发新的市场。我知道还有许多的叔叔阿姨都坚守在自己的工作岗位上不能与家人团圆。我默默地祈祷：希望这些礼花能给爸爸捎去我的祝福，给那些叔叔阿姨带去亲人们的美好祝愿！
今天是元宵节，我来给大家介绍一下元宵节的来历:农历元月十五日是元宵节，又称上元节。元宵节是*最古老的夜的节日。相传西汉*定“诸吕”，汉文帝元月十五日开基，定为元宵节。举国上下张灯结彩，欢度佳节。深宫皇室，大家闺秀也可上街看观灯游玩。
元宵节，家家户户自制元宵圆(今有专业户专卖)。元宵圆古称“浮元子”，是一种雅俗共尝，甜而不腻，脍灸人口的民间小吃，全国流行。“星灿乌云里，珠浮浊水中”。“轻圆绝胜鸡头肉，涌腻偏宜蟹眼汤”。古诗人如此描摩元宵圆，难怪此物历经千年，风行不衰。
挂花灯，放焰火。为泉州元宵节最为喜人的活动，“灯品之多，苏、福为冠”(见宋《武林旧事》)。“天下上元，灯烛之盛，无逾闽中”(见谢肇浙《五杂俎》)。泉州是花灯之城，称花灯为“古灯”。花灯有家庭自糊的，有商店摊铺出卖的.，有专业艺人特制的。有鼓灯、润饼灯、鱼虾鸡鸭鹅灯、柑桔香蕉菠萝灯、宫灯、如意灯、料丝灯、玻璃灯、走马灯……形形色色，异彩纷呈。娘家嫁女向婆家送莲子灯，新婚男子向宗祠挂灯(莲生贵子，灯与丁谐音，祈祷添丁)。街上、厅堂、门廊挂灯。在通衢大道设“鳌山”，装活动机关，有山水人物，花鸟鱼虫，光彩夺目。更有举行灯展的，精美的大型的活动的灯琳琅满目。开元寺、承天寺为灯展好场所。文化人举行春灯诗会，南音社街头搭“馆篷”，登台演唱。南安丰州唐王宫前对联:“管弦喧天，人来人往金吾夜;灯花匝地，溪南溪北玉园春”。元宵盛况，全在其中。
今天是一年一度的元宵节，我的耳边不断响着“噼里啪啦”的爆竹声。每个人脸上都洋溢着喜悦的表情，两眼笑得都快眯成一道细缝儿。
晚上，我和姐姐买了许多烟花，一起来闹元宵。我们先点燃“手持瀑布”，我小心翼翼地拿着，因为我从来没有放过“手持瀑布”这种烟花，尽管姐姐一直劝我别怕，但我的心一直怦怦地跳个不停。“手持烟花”开始出花了！朵朵烟花就像天上飘着数不清的片片雪花，让人看得眼花缭乱，又好像天上一闪一闪的小星星，还像淅淅沥沥地毛毛细雨，“手持瀑布”放出的烟花是那样的多，那样的长，那样的美，难怪商家取名叫“手持瀑布”呢！可是“手持瀑布”很快就用完了。我们又开始玩“地妞炮”，姐姐点燃后，“地牛炮”飞快地起来，飞出来的烟花又圆又小，我想：“圆”和“小”合起来叫，不正是“元宵”两字的谐音吗？不知道是不是设计者专门这样做得，还是碰巧？
我们放完了自己买得烟花，觉得还不够过瘾，于是，我们直奔姑奶家看放烟花。到了姑奶家，她家已经摆好烟花，正等着我们呢。开始放烟花了，只见先是冒着小火星，马上，变成了白色菊花的样子，中间还不停的闪动着绿色的小点，然后，越来越高，越来越高，忽然，全体腾空而起，速变成了一片璀璨的降落伞，时不时冒出许多星星点点，有黄的、蓝的、绿的。五颜六色，从天而降，真是壮观极了，漂亮极了！随后，我们几个小孩又玩起了“七彩电火花”，一点燃，“七彩电火花”就发出了“噼里啪啦”的爆竹声，形状像飞溅起来的小水滴，四处乱飞。我一手拿着一个，高兴的跳起舞来，还不停地在空中写着“元宵节快乐”这几个字，沉醉在一片美好之中。好像连院里的几只小狗也被这美丽的场面所吸引，再也不像*常那样汪汪直叫，而是一直盯着美丽的烟花。
这个元宵节我们可是闹得够开心的，这一天，我可真高兴啊！
在去俱乐部广场的路上，熙熙攘攘的人群把我和妈妈淹没了。大路两边高高地挂起一串串的红灯笼，给节日增添了喜庆的气氛。
广场上真是人山人海，*台上锣鼓声阵阵，俱乐部正门上方是“开泰三羊留吉去，闹春灵猴送福来”的.春联，正中挂着金猴托“福”。广场东半边是小朋友们表演的歌舞，西半边老年人正在扭秧歌，小朋友们的精彩表演赢得片片掌声，老爷爷老奶奶夸张幽默的动作逗得大家哈哈大笑……
我看得正入迷，忽然一道雪亮的瀑布从天而降，原来是广场上空倒挂的烟花被点燃了，接着地上的火树也开出了五彩夺目的花。半空中是“银河落九天”，地上是“火树银花不夜天”，真好比人间仙境一样！忽然不远处又传来“咚”的一声巨响，一个礼花腾空而起，在空中绽放开一大朵五颜六色的花，哇，真是太美了！礼花弹一个接一个地飞上天，又在天空中变幻成各种形状：有的是杨柳垂下万丝绦，有的是蝴蝶振翅翩翩舞，更奇妙的是有的礼花弹在空中变出了一串串红灯笼，然后随风飘飘悠悠飞向远方。
礼花在空中绽放，地上是欢乐的海洋，又是一个全家团圆的日子。我望着天空中又大又圆的月亮，想起我的爸爸却远在千里之外的大西北，为公司去开发新的市场。我知道还有许多的叔叔阿姨都坚守在自己的工作岗位上不能与家人团圆。我默默地祈祷：希望这些礼花能给爸爸捎去我的祝福，给那些叔叔阿姨带去亲人们的美好祝愿！
今年元宵节让我很难忘，因为这天我过得很开心！
元宵节是我国传统节日。元宵节这天非常隆重热闹。白天，来自各乡镇人们都汇集到新建文化中心来表演，有舞狮子、踩高跷、划旱船、扭秧歌……广场上，人山人海。气球在空中随风飘扬，好像也在庆祝元宵节。
晚上，回到家里，只见热腾腾饺子已经端出来了，饺子上面还缠着海带，我感觉很纳闷？除了这些，还有一碗碗汤圆也端上了桌子。这时，我问爷爷。爷爷笑着回答，饺子上缠着海带，那叫“金丝缠元宝”，吃了会让人来年发大财。汤圆也就是团团圆圆意思了。
伴随着外面阵阵炮响，我飞快往外跑。大街上，看到路上有很多看烟花人，大家都非常高兴。来到燃放地点，真是人山人海啊！只听见几声沉闷声音，一个个烟花带着红红火星窜上了天空，几声脆响，夜空绽放出几朵美丽花朵。它们形状和颜色各不相同：有五颜六色满天星，金黄色蒲公英，紫色牵牛花，火红玫瑰花，粉红月季、银色百合……，绚丽多彩。随着一声声炮响，人们在惊呼，在赞叹，夜色中，人们微微扬起脸上变幻着多姿色彩，露出了幸福笑容。
城市夜空是多么绚丽多彩，人们生活是多么幸福无比！

the chinese new year is now popularly known as the spring festival because it starts from the begining of spring (the first of the twenty-four terms in coodination with the changes of nature). its origin is too old to be traced. several explanations are hanging around. all agree, however, that the word nian, which in modern chinese solely means year, was originally the name of a monster beast that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year.
one legend goes that the beast nian had a very big mouth that would swallow a great many people with one bite. people were very scared. one day, an old man came to their rescue, offering to subdue nian. to nian he said, i hear say that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts of prey on earth instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents? so, it did swallow many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harrassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.
after that, the old man disappeared riding the beast nian. he turned out to be an immortal god. now that nian is gone and other beasts of prey are also scared into forests, people begin to enjoy their peaceful life. before the old man left, he had told people to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors at each year's end to scare away nian in case it sneaked back again, because red is the color the beast feared the most.
from then on, the tradition of observing the conquest of nian is carried on from generation to generation. the term guo nian, which may mean survive the nian becomes today celebrate the (new) year as the word guo in chinese having both the meaning of pass-over and observe. the custom of putting up red paper and firing fire-crackers to scare away nian should it have a chance to run loose is still around. however, people today have long forgotten why they are doing all this, except that they feel the color and the sound add to the excitement of the celebration.

on new year's 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.
