备注： “支山腰”习俗
在山区旅游的时候，经常看到人们用小木棍(树枝)撑在山间石缝或大石头的下面。其实这种现象是我国已经流传千年的习俗，称为支山腰。
“支山腰”习俗的起源
在古代，人们对山川有着敬畏和崇拜的心理，他们认为山无大小，皆有神灵，山大则神大，山小即神小也。《礼记》云：“山林川谷丘陵，能出云，为风雨，见怪物，皆曰神。”人们相信每一座山都有相对应的山神管辖，而山是神圣的，山同时也是充满危险的，不能贸然进入。
因此，每当人们需要进山时，就会对着大山中的神仙鬼怪烧香焚纸、虔诚地祭拜，用烟火与山神提前沟通，以求山神准许，否则将会招来灾难。由于一些山没有设置专用的香炉，烧香祭祀山神者就会把香根支在石缝中寻求山神的保佑。后来就逐渐演变为在山岩下支一根木棍，或放一个树枝，“以木为香”、“插棍许愿”，通过木棍代替烧香的登山祈福习俗。
这就是“支山腰”习俗的起源。反映了古代民众的山神崇拜，是祈求平安、健康、幸福生活的信仰，一直延续到了今天。
“支山腰”寓意的演变
现在的人们在爬山时，许多人仍然会在山岩下支一根木棍或放一个树枝。这是沿袭了古人对山神的尊敬，“以木为香”祭拜山神的意思！同时，用支山棍代替烧香，可以起到防火、祈福的双重效果。
除此之外，现代的人们对这一行为也演变出了更新的寓意。流传最广的一个寓意就是：“木棍支山，腰腿不酸”，支山腰取大山压顶不弯腰之意，反映了老百姓朴素的健康观，是祈福自己和自己的亲友腰好腿好身体好，希望有腰疼病者以后能挺直腰杆，尽快康复，减轻自己或所祝福之人的痛苦。
另一寓意是：找山神给自己撑腰。希望自己像支山棍那样“顶天立地”般地生活，这叫一力顶千金，可以让自己有靠山。寓意自己有了靠山，山神就能保佑自己和家人事事顺利，从此飞黄腾达。
当然，这些都是民间的说法，比较感性。一般情况下，人们都愿意把奇石、古树、庙宇等当作寄托心愿与信念的载体。在石缝间插上一根木棍，是一个很朴素的愿望，那就是希望山岳神灵能够带给自己好运和收获，希望山神保佑自身与家人的平安。

What Is Chinese New Year Like in Rural Shandong?
For the 2022 Lunar New Year, me and my girlfriend travelled to Shandong. A friend invited us to experience the authentic and traditional New Year celebrations in her small rural hometown, and together we welcomed the year of the tiger with a trip to a local market and with lots of fireworks!
Inspired by this trip to China's northern countryside, I also challenged myself to speak Chinese throughout the video and to keep the majority of the content in Chinese. It was definitely not an easy task, but I am quite happy with the result.
Many many thanks to all the people who made this a very special Chinese New Year!
