兔儿爷过中秋

兔儿爷是北京市的地方传统手工艺品,属于中秋应节应令的儿童玩具。每逢中秋节,北京城里的百姓都会供奉“兔儿爷”。这一习俗源自明代。清代,“兔儿爷”转变成儿童的中秋节玩具。后来有人仿照戏曲人物,把“兔儿爷”雕造成金盔金甲的武士,有的骑着狮、象,有的背插纸旗或纸伞,或坐或立,讨人喜欢。
The Rabbit Master is a local traditional handicraft in Beijing. It belongs to children's toys in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, people in Beijing will worship "Rabbit Lord". This custom originated in the Ming Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, "Rabbit Master" was transformed into children's Mid-Autumn Festival toys. Later, some people imitated the opera characters and carved "Lord Rabbit" into golden armor and gold armor. Some of them rode lions and elephants, some carried paper flags or umbrellas on their backs, or sat or stood up to make people like them.
