Festival
There are many traditional festival in China. Such as the Spring festival, the Lantern festival,the Dragon boat festival, the Mid-autumn festival, the Double-ninth festival, etc. Of course the Spring festival is the most important one, just like the western new year, the Christmas holiday. I like the atmosphere of new year in the street. The stores decorated with neon lights and flowers, everywhere ring with the happy song. All the people seem to be friendly and pleasant.
The Spring Festival is for family reunion. Many people who are not living with their family in the same city. In other words, in festival they have enough time to stay with their family. Usually we have 10 days for relaxing, so for some other people, they spend the festival holiday to travel.
Nowadays, many Chinese young people prefer western festival than Chinese traditional festival. I don't think that is good. Every festival has its history and culture. We should have a open mindedness to accept the western culture and then we also should preserve our traditional festival.
