Chinese culture has witnessed a continuous development and vigorous evolution,covering a wide range from festival customs to table manners. By observing¹ the traditions of specific festivals, people awaken their cultural consciousness² and cultivate a keen³passion for their own cultural identity.

For instance, in the Dragon Boat Festival, not only do the Chinese attend⁶ Dragon Boat Racing to express their feelings, but also they eat Zongzi. Zongzi is a special food especially for the day to memorize a great ancient poet, Quyuan, who sacrificed his life for his country more than two thousand years ago. Spring Festival is another significant Chinese cultural heritage, which enjoys a considerable popularity and vitality around the globe nowadays.

Not only do family member s gather for a reunion dinner, but also they visit friends and relatives to express sincere wishes for the coming year.
