Do you know why Chinese New Year lantern hanging do? Let me tell you.
Saying that in ancient times, there is always a monster attacks a few days before the year all the village people. Therefore, the village had one door figuring out ways to rid of that monster, a villager said: "The better we have a monster attack on the village during those few days we hung the red things, such as: red lanterns. Red couplets and red tape and so on. "The villagers door speak with one voice, said:" good, you"re really clever ah, you use this method you have it. "Upon saying this, the villagers were on their respective home-prepared things.
The next day, it is also the spring. Gejia households entrance doors and the room were covered with red lanterns. Red tape and covered with red couplets. At this time, that monster ready to attack villagers, visitors have arrived to the door, he saw Gejia households covered with red lanterns, and my heart suddenly feel a bit scared, like a red torch to see fluttering.
Because the monsters are terrified of running with a torch so we left the village. Villagers saw the monster left the village on the happy dancing. From then on, people will hang red lanterns at the Chinese New Year. Labeled red couplets.
Chinese New Year is one such hanging lanterns come.
I love the festive Chinese New Year!
