Today, various customs related to birthday celebrations have a long history, all of which originated from magic and religion. In ancient times, customs such as congratulations, gifts, celebrations and lighting candles were designed to protect people who turned one year old that day from evil spirits and ensure their well-being in the coming year. Until the 4th century, Christians didn't celebrate their birthdays because they thought it was a pagan custom.

Birthday celebration was first put forward in the records of celebrating Buddha's birthday in secular temple fairs. At the beginning of the 3rd century, "every time I washed the Buddha, I set up more wine and rice, and set up seats on the road. The number of lines is ten miles, and people come to see food and spend billions "("The History of the Three Kingdoms, Volume 4, Lu You Biography "). Under the influence of Buddhism, after the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the saying of having a birthday appeared one after another.
