中国元旦习俗
元旦是庆贺新年的开始,欢度元旦可说是世界各国各地区的元旦节的习俗。在我国,元旦节还列入了法定假日。我国和世界上大多 数国家、地区采用公历纪年法,把 1月1日定为新年的开始,称作“元旦”。我国对元旦节不如新年重视,所以一般中国元旦节的习俗就是张贴“欢度元旦”。
由于元旦是在民国年间才诞生的,并是由春节演化而来,所以,在中国刚刚开始庆祝元旦时,其庆祝的风俗习惯当然大都是类似于春节,或者说是春节的缩小版。毕竟元旦不是我国的传统节日,虽然沿用了部分传统的庆祝方式:如燃放炮竹、杀三生、敬鬼神、拜祭先人等,但在人们的心目中却并不见的会占用多么重要的地位。到了现代,元旦的庆祝习俗就更简单了。
元旦的庆祝方式一: 全中国甚至是全世界都知道的,很多国家都把元旦顶为法顶节日,在元旦这天放假。新中国成立后,也规定元旦为法定节日放假一天。
元旦的庆祝方式二: 现在比较普遍的就是由团体组织的活动,如元旦联欢会、挂庆祝元旦的标语、或举行集体活动等,以前就有组织敲锣打鼓、集体跳民族舞的,现在在电视记录片上还能看到,到科技发展的今天,就演变为联欢晚会什么的了。近年更是有旅游、聚会等节目,反正元旦这天并没有太多的传统,在这一天假期了就任人发挥了。甚至,元旦这天对年轻一代来说只意味着一天的假期。
元旦的庆祝方式三: 保留着中国传统的庆祝方式就是在以民间了,尤其是在农村。每到元旦,家家户户都会燃放炮竹,杀鸡宰鹅的,拜祭过各方神灵后就是一家人团聚一餐。至于更为浓重的庆祝方式暂时还没见过。
现代中国的元旦,根据中国政府将其列入法定假日,成为全国人民的节日。放假一天,后常常将当日前或后双休日调整,一般连续休息三天。现代中国对元旦的庆祝较之春节,重要性要小得多。一般机关、企业会举行年终集体庆祝活动,但民间活动很少。
