Dear Jim,
I am glad to receive your email. Let me tell you something about my favourite festival.
My favourite festival is the Dragon Boat Festival. It’s one of the most important traditional festivals in China. It falls on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month.
The festival is celebrated to remember the great ancient Chinese poet Qu Yuan. On that day, my family usually get together to eat zongzi and other delicious dishes. In the south of China, people often have dragon boat races. Besides, we have a 3-day holiday during the festival. So we can have a break from work and spend time with our family.
I like the festival very much and I always have fun. What do you think of it?
Yours,
Liu Wei
