Playing with dragon lanterns, also known as "Dragon Dance" and "Dragon Dance", is a unique folk entertainment activity in China. From the Spring Festival to the Lantern Festival, China has the custom of playing dragon lanterns in both urban and rural areas. After thousands of years of inheritance and development, playing dragon lantern has become a kind of folk dance with lively form, beautiful performance and romantic color. The ancient poetry of dragon dancing in the Spring Festival is the ancient poetry of watching lights.
Last night in the Yuan Dynasty
Cui ye
Don't rush the jade and leak the copper pot, and the iron lock will be opened all night;
Who can sit on the moon and smell the lights?
Watch the lights for fifteen nights
(Tang) Lu
A fragrant banquet was held in Jinli, the early year of Lan Hongyan.
The color is far, and the light is far.
After the fall of China people's suspected star, the building was like a hanging moon.
Don't laugh so much, come and show off the nine branches.
Light on the fifteenth night of the first month.
(Tang)
Thousands of doors are locked and brightly lit. In the middle of January, it moved to Beijing.
Three hundred wives dance with sleeves and write in the sky.
Poetry theory
(Tang) Li Shangyin
Everything owned by the emperor is full of moonlight like water, lanterns like mountains, and gorgeous and eclectic carriages block the spacious avenue.
In his spare time, he couldn't witness the grand occasion of the Lantern Festival in Zhongxing, so he had to take his fellow villagers to see the temple fair and visit Zigu God.
Poetry theory
(Song) Jiang Baishi
The Lantern Festival competes to see the lotus boat, and the BMW car picks up the cymbals;
On a stormy night, people go to the empty building, and the lonely lamp still calls for selling glutinous rice balls.
Poetry theory
(Song) Jiang Baishi
The honored guests look at the Imperial Street with a hook curtain, and the treasures in the city come at one time.
There is no way out for the flower stand in front of the curtain, and there is no money to refuse to pay back.
(Note: Treasure here refers to Yuanxiao)
Jade case element Xi
(Song) Xin Qiji
One night, the east wind made up thousands of trees and flowers, blowing off the stars and rain.
BMW carved cars full of incense, the phoenix moved, the basin lights turned and the fish dragon danced all night.
Moths, snow, willows, gold thread, laughter and incense are all gone.
Looking for him in the crowd, I suddenly turned around, but the man was there, and the fire was dim.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the flower market is brightly lit.
At the end of the month, it is about dusk.
On the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month of this year, the moonlight and lights are still the same as last year.
I will never see my old friend last year again, and my tears are soaked through my clothes.
Lantern Festival in Beijing
(Yuan) Yuan Haowen
Tourists wearing beautiful clothes have entertainment activities everywhere. In the streets and alleys, children's laughter and jokes are very obvious.
I am just a gown, and I am also in the laughter of tourists.
Fold laurels to make Lantern Festival.
Lose someone's name
I cherish the beautiful scene of the Lantern Festival. The bright moonlight shines and the lights are shining everywhere this night.
The moon is full of ice wheels, lights burn the land and sea, and people step on spring.
Three beauties can be rewarded, and four are ruthless and hateful.
What I am afraid of is the dim light, the quiet and desolate people, the corner of the south building and the west wing under the moon.

(Ming) Li Mengyang
Zhongshan Ruzi leans on new makeup, and Yan Ji, the daughter, plays alone.
Sing Wang Xianchun Yuefu together, and the moon outside the golden beam bridge is like frost.
night of the 15th of the first lunar month；Lantern Festival；yuanxiao
(Ming) Tang Yin
The moon without lights is not entertaining, and the moon without lights is not spring.
Spring is everywhere, just like the lady seen here. On a bright moonlit night, flashing lanterns set off the moon like pure silver.
The streets are full of Zhu Cui swimming around the girls in the village, singing songs and competing with the social gods.
How can you get rid of this wonderful moment if you don't show your respect and smile?
on Lantern Festival
(Qing) Dong Shunmin
A hundred fire trees are expensive, and BMW is full of fragrant dust. Fly to Qiongjie to test the lamp, and bear to bid farewell to Tan Lang.
Once I pretended to be angry, once I smiled, and Meidochan helped me.
Stone bridge fishing, whispered to his mother. Do you regret this night? Afraid of entering the Guanghan Palace.
It is better to go home, it is hard to forget the past, and it will always be a reunion month.
