中国传统节日
中国传统节日多按农历，公历日期每年浮动。查 2026 年各节日日期与食俗。
中文介绍
中国有「法定节假日」（按公历与调休安排，见节假日工具）和「传统节日」（多按农历）两套体系。传统节日大多以农历计算，所以公历日期每年浮动：春节在 1 月下旬到 2 月中旬之间，中秋在 9 月到 10 月初之间，端午在 5 月底到 6 月底之间。只有清明固定在公历 4 月 4–6 日（按太阳黄经），冬至固定在 12 月 21–23 日。
每个节日都有对应的食俗：春节吃饺子或年糕、元宵吃汤圆、端午吃粽子、中秋吃月饼、腊八喝腊八粥、重阳吃重阳糕。对旅行者来说，了解节日日期有两个实际用处：一是避开春节、国庆等出行高峰与涨价；二是特意赶上某个节日体验民俗，比如元宵灯会、端午龙舟。注意：春节与国庆是全年最大的人流高峰，热门景点与车票都会紧张。
常见问题
中国最重要的传统节日是哪个？
春节（农历正月初一）是全年最重要的节日，也是最大出行高峰；中秋、端午次之。
为什么节日日期每年都变？
多数节日按农历，农历月比公历短，所以公历日期每年浮动；只有清明、冬至按太阳历固定。
旅行要避开哪些节日高峰？
春节和国庆（10 月 1–7 日前后）是全年最大人流高峰，车票、机票、酒店都紧张，建议避开或提前很久预订。
English
China has two holiday systems: official public holidays (which follow the Gregorian calendar with makeup workdays, covered by the Holidays tool) and traditional festivals (which follow the lunar calendar). Most traditional festivals are lunar-based, so their Gregorian dates shift every year: Spring Festival falls between late January and mid-February, Mid-Autumn between September and early October, and Dragon Boat between late May and late June. Only Qingming (April 4–6) and the Winter Solstice (Dec 21–23) are fixed on the solar calendar.
Each festival has its signature food: dumplings or rice cakes for Spring Festival, tangyuan (glutinous rice balls) for Lantern, zongzi (rice dumplings) for Dragon Boat, mooncakes for Mid-Autumn, and Laba porridge for the Laba festival. For travelers, festival dates matter twice: avoid the huge Spring Festival and National Day crowd peaks and price surges, or deliberately time a trip to catch a festival's folk customs — lantern fairs, dragon-boat races, temple markets. Spring Festival and National Day are by far the busiest travel windows in China, with tickets and hotels selling out well ahead.
FAQ
What is China's most important traditional festival?
Spring Festival (the 1st of the 1st lunar month) is the most important and also the year's biggest travel peak. Mid-Autumn and Dragon Boat are next.
Why do festival dates change every year?
Most festivals follow the lunar calendar, which is shorter than the solar year, so their Gregorian dates drift. Only Qingming and the Winter Solstice are fixed to the solar calendar.
Which festival peaks should travelers avoid?
Spring Festival and National Day (around Oct 1–7) are the biggest travel peaks of the year — tickets, flights and hotels sell out. Avoid or book very far ahead.
