Hanging the door god’s Spring Festival couplets Cinema 1950 witch clothes drawCourtesy of the palace are of particular importance
For thousands of years, the activities of the New Year have been rich and colorful. Whether it is ordinary people or the Forbidden City, they all use activities such as sending blessings, wearing new clothes, and eating reunion dinner to express their beautiful expectations for the New Year. As soon as you enter the Forbidden City, the strong New Year atmosphere came to you. In order to cooperate with the exhibition, the entire Forbidden City was decorated. As a symbol of the “year” of Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw, the spring couplet and door god hanging from various gates are very eye-catching.
Deputy Director of the Artifact Department of the Palace Museum and Associate Researcher Xu Wei: Door gods are hung in pairs, including couplets hanging on both sides of the door. Generally, the door gods of Babaylan 1990 cloth draw door gods are also posted according to different positions. The door gods of the martial arts are generally the main ones in the outer courts, and the door gods of the inner courts are generally the main ones in the inner courts, the door gods of the fairy, and the door gods of the boys are generally the main ones in the inner courts.
The production of Spring Festival couplets in the palace is generally jointly responsible by the Ministry of Works and the Office of the Internal Affairs. The writing of Spring Festival couplets was mainly done by Hanlins who were good at calligraphy. Unlike today’s customs, the Spring Festival couplets in the palace are not posted on New Year’s Eve, but are hung on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month every year, starting from the Qianqing Gate and the Qianqing Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw palaces, etc., and spread out in turn.
The Forbidden CityCinema 1950 witch cloth draw Associate Research Librarian of the Artifact Department of the Museum Zhan Mengxia: We want to paste the word “Fu” in the people, and the palace is alsoIt is the same. From the first day of the twelfth lunar month, the emperor had to write the first word “Fu” on the dragon stairs, and the first word “Fu” written in Komiks 1960 witch cloth draw must have been posted on the door of the Qianqing Palace, because that was his home. After that, they will write some of them in other palaces one after another, and then they will be rewarded with such ministers and foreign vassals.
In addition to the Spring Festival couplet gods, spring notes will also be posted in the palace. Spring strips are auspicious words written on long strips of paper Cinema 1950 witch cloth draw.
Associate Research Librarian of the Artifact Department of the Palace Museum Zhan Mengxia: Spring strips are different from Spring Couplets. Spring couplets are paired. Spring strips are usually long singles. When posted, they are more casual and can be posted anywhere. If there is a more civilized family in our palace, such as the welfare of the country and the peace of the country, and if there are people who can stick fat pigs in the pigpen, golden roosters in the rack, good springs in the well, and safe entry and exit, Babaylan 1990 cloth draw, it will be even more casual to stick it.

Family PalaceCinema 1950 witch cloth drawFeast New Year’s Eve New Year’s Eve dinner in the Forbidden City
The New Year is a day for family reunion in the Chinese concept, and the New Year’s Eve dinner is the most happy time for the family, and the Royal Family is no exception.
The Emperors of the Qing Dynasty usually had their meals alone, and only had dinner with their concubines during the New Year Festival, which was called the “Clan Family Banquet of Babaylan 1990 clothes draw”. Family dinners on the first day of the Lunar New Year are usually breakfast, held at 7 a.m., and are located in the Qianqing Palace. Although it is a family banquet, the hierarchical etiquette system must be strictly observed.
Palace MuseumCinema 1950 witch cloth drawAssociate Research Librarian, Hospital Artifact Department HanBabaylan 1990 clothes drawQian: Although the reunion banquet on the first day of the first lunar month is called the family reunion banquet, it is not like oursCinema 1950 witch cloth draw Now I imagine that the emperor’s whole family isCinema 1950 witch cloth draw is all together. It is actually divided into two parts. Generally, he will have New Year’s Eve dinner with his concubines in the morning, and then he will have New Year’s Eve dinner with his relatives, princes and grandchildren, and some princes from the near branch in the afternoon.
In fact, the tableware for the palace family banquet is also divided into levels. The emperor used the golden dragon bowl and the golden dragon plate. The table had a total of 108 kinds of food. The queen used the inside and outside the dark cloud dragon plate bowl and the golden spoon and chopsticks. The food was reduced to 64 kinds of food. There were no gold meals below the imperial concubine. There were 32 kinds of food on each table. This is the scene of the family banquet during the Spring Festival of the 48th year of Qianlong. More than 100 cultural relics were used, which is very spectacular.
Associate Research Librarian, Utilities Department of the Palace Museum, Han Qian: The table setting starts from the farthest, called TouluBabaylan 1990 cloth draw. We saw 4 tall ones, called pine hut fruit covers. They mainly place fruits, and then there will be snacks, cold meat and candied fruits. There are two ways in the middle that the emperor will not place before he sat down. The hot soup dishes will be served after the emperor sat down. The group closest to the emperor will put some side dishes and sauces.
There is also a small red case here. Don’t look at it as small, on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, when the emperor eats dumplings, he must not put the wrong position.
Associate Research Librarian, Utilities Department of the Palace Museum: This dumpling is also very particular. This small plate should be placed in the red case we see immediately. The red caseThere is a gourd in the middle of the zodiac, and the plate must be placed on it. Because of this pattern, we call it the Dajibao case. It is said that on the morning of the 48th year of Qianlong, the emperor ate three of four dumplings. The dumplings are the same as our current customs. They will put steel steaks in them. The emperor’s family also put coins and put such money, which says peace and auspiciousness. That day, he ate all the two auspicious money.
