Small year time difference:
Most areas in the North: the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month -- 'northern Lunar New Year'
Since the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the emperor's family held a heaven worship ceremony on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. In order to "save money", the kitchen Lord was worshipped by the way. Therefore, most of the northern regions celebrated the lunar new year on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month.
Most parts of the South: the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month -- 'folk traditional year'
As early as the Song Dynasty, it has long been recorded that "the 24th lunar month celebrates the Lunar New Year". Most parts of the South still maintain the ancient tradition of celebrating the lunar new year on this day.
Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai: the day before New Year's Eve -- 'New Year's Eve'
Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai are used to calling New Year's Eve 'New Year's Eve', corresponding to it, the night before New Year's Eve is called 'small New Year's Eve', and this day is also called small New Year's Eve. In history, on the 24th night of the twelfth lunar month, Wu called it the 24th night, which is the day to send stoves, because it is called the little new year's Eve.
Parts of Sichuan and Guizhou: New Year's Eve -- 'Xiaonian'
In some areas of Southwest China, people celebrate the lunar new year on New Year's Eve, and their lunar new year is mostly on the 14th or 15th of the first month.
Nanjing, Jiangsu and other places: the 15th day of the first month -- 'Xiaonian'
It is said that after Zhu Di, the emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, usurped power and usurped the throne, the people of Nanjing complained about its cruelty and tyranny. Through the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month, they missed the leniency of the last emperor, so the Lantern Festival became a small year in Nanjing.
