元旦的英文介紹

New Year's Day is the first day of the lunar calendar. it is the day when the earth has circled the sun for one round and is beginning another circling. it represents a new beginning when people send off the old days and welcome the new ones. as the first day of the year, yuandan has been considered to be the most important festival since the ancient times.

customs

ui(beginning of the year): according to the chinese traditional custom, starting from haishi(9p.m. to 11p.m.)of the last evening of the twelfth lunar month, each family must prepare offering s to deities at the altar. at the same time, they too prepare food for the new year day: the whole family will then stay awake together to attend to the year(called shou sui). after haishi, zishi(11p.m. to 1a.m.)will come, and this is the arrival of new year(yuandan). at this moment, people begin the celebration with fireworks. vegetarian and sweet foods will then be placed are the altar for offerings, and incense be burned to welcome the deities. in the ancient times, it was believed that haishi connected the two years and thus was called kaisui.

At the same night, some families will follow the instruction in tongshu and place preparing altar in the direction of the "fortune deity" during the "fortune time" to receive the deity. if the direction of the "fortune deity" is at the "ill position", people will choose to receive "happy deity" or "noble deity" instead.

2. There is an apparent difference in the custom of food taking on yuandan between the chinese in the northern and southern regions. the northern chinese has the habit of taking jiao zi(dumpling made of flour with vegetable and meat wrapped inside). some people may put a sweet or a coin inside jiao zi, hoping to have a sweet year after tasting the sweet and a wealthy year after tasting the coin. on the other hand, the southern chinese have the taboo for killing on yuandan. therefore, they do not take meat in tee morning of yuandan, so as to avoid bloodshed or mutual slaughter. in order to evade misfortune, they have the first meal of this day without meat. instead, they take vegetarian food for the sake of virtue.

元旦旅遊攻略

東北雪線。

對於南方人沒有什麼比冬天到東北看雪來得誘惑,而國內這幾年看雪比較出名的地方就是黑龍江,內蒙古和新疆。根據難易程度我推薦黑龍江。可以把雪鄉,長白山天池和吉林霧凇連起來一條線走,這樣的線路也才7天就夠了。冬天在北方遊玩,建議跟著那種戶外俱樂部,雖然一般測算起來,它每人就掙那麼大概200元錢,但它常常使用大車加上司機常年在雪地裡開車比較安全。

廣東的丹霞山

中國的丹霞地貌在去年被列入了世界自然遺產,其中6個丹霞地貌就有廣東的`丹霞山,丹霞地貌最早發現在這裡,所以我們把這種地貌取名丹霞地貌。丹霞山位於廣東的韶關。廣州到韶關的火車很多,出了火車站門口不遠就有公交車直達丹霞景區。丹霞景區分長老峰,陽元石,錦江和翔龍湖,一般遊客都是玩陽元石和長老峰2個景點,需要2個半天。所以基本都是早上從廣州到韶關,然後趕到景區先玩陽元石,再玩長老峰。住宿可以選擇陽元石景區,或者山門外(有朋友說,申請世遺裡面的住宿都拆除了)

一月的時候是傳統的淡季,所以到那裡旅行的人不多,但是南方的景色一般不會受季節影響變化很多,所以推薦了一月,特別是元旦。
