However, people will be very curious. In ancient times, people did not have electric lights, so after dark. Did they go to bed immediately after eating? In fact, if we search for relevant information, we will find that it is not the case.

However, there was no such thing as a light bulb in ancient China. Therefore, in ancient times, people usually lit some of their own lighting equipment such as candles and oil lamps after dark. However, after lighting oil lamps or candles, girls usually start to do some repair work, while men usually repair some broken furniture at home, etc. It can be seen that in ancient China, although they had no lights at night, they would also use some of their own lighting tools to complete the work that needed to be done in their lives. It doesn’t mean it stops working just because there is no light. 2. Comparison between ancient people and modern people at night
From the above description, we can know that ancient people generally used some lighting tools to continue working at night.

However, the night among modern people is completely different from the night among ancient people. Many people in modern times generally choose to engage in some entertainment activities at night, such as square dancing, clubbing, and playing games. etc. 3. Overview
