春節(jié)，中國人最重要的節(jié)日。是中國最盛大、最熱鬧、最重要的一個古老傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日，也是中國人所獨有的節(jié)日。
節(jié)，是農(nóng)歷的歲首，春節(jié)的另一名稱叫過年，是中國最盛大、最熱鬧、最重要的一個古老傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日，也是中國人所獨有的節(jié)日。是中華文明最集中的表現(xiàn)。自西漢以來，春節(jié)的習俗一直延續(xù)到今天。春節(jié)一般指除夕和正月初一。但在民間，傳統(tǒng)意義上的春節(jié)是指從臘月初八的臘祭或臘月二十三或二十四的祭灶，一直到正月十五，其中以除夕和正月初一為高潮。如何過慶賀這個節(jié)日，在千百年的歷史發(fā)展中，形成了一些較為固定的風俗習慣，有許多還相傳至今。在春節(jié)這一傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日期間，我國的漢族和大多數(shù)少數(shù)民族都有要舉行各種慶�；顒�，這些活動大多以祭祀神佛、祭奠祖先、除舊布新、迎禧接福、祈求豐年為主要內(nèi)容�；顒有问截S富多彩，帶有濃郁的民族特色。2006年5月20日，“春節(jié)”民俗經(jīng)國務院批準列入第一批國家級非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)名錄。
春節(jié)的來歷有一種傳說，中國古時候有一種叫“年”的怪獸，頭長觸角，兇猛異常。“年”長年深居海底，每到除夕才爬上岸，吞食牲畜傷害人命。因此，每到除夕這天，村村寨寨的人們扶老攜幼逃往深山，以躲避“年”獸的傷害。有一年除夕，從村外來了個乞討的老人。鄉(xiāng)親們一片匆忙恐慌景象，只有村東頭一位老婆婆給了老人些食物，并勸他快上山躲避“年”獸，那老人捋髯笑道：“婆婆若讓我在家呆一夜，我一定把‘年’獸攆走。”老婆婆仍然繼續(xù)勸說，乞討老人笑而不語。 半夜時分，“年”獸闖進村。它發(fā)現(xiàn)村里氣氛與往年不同：村東頭老婆婆家，門貼大紅紙，屋內(nèi)燭火通明。“年”獸渾身一抖，怪叫了一聲。將近門口時，院內(nèi)突然傳來“砰砰啪啪”的炸響聲，“年”渾身戰(zhàn)栗，再不敢往前湊了。原來，“年”最怕紅色、火光和炸響。這時，婆婆的家門大開，只見院內(nèi)一位身披紅袍的老人在哈哈大笑。“年”大驚失色，狼狽逃躥了。第二天是正月初一，避難回來的人們見村里安然無恙十分驚奇。這時，老婆婆才恍然大悟，趕忙向鄉(xiāng)親們述說了乞討老人的許諾。這件事很快在周圍村里傳開了，人們都知道了驅趕“年”獸的辦法。(客家人的傳說)從此每年除夕，家家貼紅對聯(lián)、燃放爆竹;戶戶燭火通明、守更待歲。初一一大早，還要走親串友道喜問好。這風俗越傳越廣，成了中國民間最隆重的傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。
