　　As a solar term, Start of Spring had already entered people's lives in the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC). At that time, there were eight solar terms. According to some experts, the24 solar terms were used for the first time in books during the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 24), when the Start of Spring was set as the Spring Festival. In 1913, the first day of the first month of the lunar year was mandated as the Spring Festival.

　　作为24节气之一，“立春”从春秋时期就走进了人们的生活。那时，一年分为8个节气。据专家所说，24节气首次出现在史书上是在西汉，当时“立春”被定为春节。1913年，农历元月首日才被定为春节。
