The Mid­Autumn Festival

The Mid­Autumn Festival falls on the 15th of the eighth month of our Chinese lunar calendar. As one of the traditional Chinese festivals, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy we are, we will try to come home for the celebration. The moon that night looks the brightest in the whole lunar month. What we love most is the time we enjoy the full moon together. With the beautiful moon up in the sky, we sit together and eat moon cakes and fruit, sharing our stories. In addition to these traditional activities, we have a wider range of choices such as travelling and visiting our relatives or friends.

The Spring Festival

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West.

The dates for this annual celebration vary from late January to early February. To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year's Day and ends on the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern Festival.

Before the Spring Festival, the people usually clean and decorate their houses. All family members get together on New Year's Eve to have a big meal, followed by the lucky money given to the children to wish for good luck in the new year. People will also light crackers and fireworks and watch the Spring Festival Gala together.
