It is a great time for Chinese people to get together. I still vividly remember my joyful Lantern festival last year. That night, I set off for the lantern fair after supper. All along the way, I saw people from near and far packing the street in a buzz of excitement. Some were stretching themselves on their tiptoes to see the lantern parade including lion dancing and lanterns in numerous fancy shapes. Others were chatting or taking photos to record this unforgettable moment. As for me, the riddle-guessing contest is the most thrilling part. Riddles are written down and posted on each lantern. If anyone presents the correct solution to the riddle, he or she will be given a gift. My journey there was totally worth it because I solved 6 riddles and won a delicate toy car for myself. Back home, my mother feasted me with a bowl of mouthwatering Yuanxiao, which symbolizes/represents unity, happiness and harmony. It was amazing to have such a joyful Lantern Festival experience and I will recommend anyone travelling to China to experience it! My Amazing Spring Festival Experience The Spring Festival, one of the most popular traditional festivals in China, usually falls on the first day of the lunar year and lasts until the Lantern Festival. It is a great time for Chinese people to get together. It was originally celebrated to scare away a fierce beast Nian in ancient times. However, it is now given new meanings and regarded as an occasion for people to enjoy the reunion with families however far they live. I still remember celebrating the Spring Festival with my family last year. We enjoyed a lot of activities. During the day, we cleaned and decorated our house as well as prepared everything needed for the feast. On the eve, we gathered to enjoy the reunion dinner while watching the annual Spring Festival Gala on TV. After that, we set off firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and welcome the arrival of a promising new year. It seemed that every family was bathed in the joyful atmosphere. In the following days, my parents and I, dressed up in new clothes, went from house to house to pay a New Year visit to our relatives and friends and express our best wishes. Before the festival came, we had a though cleaning of our house so as to sweep away the bad luck and put up / hang red couplets which carry our best wishes for a promising new year. Children are given lucky money in red envelopes from parents and relatives. It was a really meaningful festival experience and I felt delighted to get together with my parents and relatives. An Unforgettable Dragon Boat Festival Experience The Dragon Boat Festival normally falls on the fifth day of the fifth month of lunar calendar and is celebrated in honor/memory of the great ancient poet, Qu Yuan. The D.B.F, which dates back to the Warring States Period, was originally established to honor QU Yuan, a renowned patriotic poet. Now it typically falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month and is widely acknowledged as a most significant traditional festival in China. I’ll never forget the Dragon Boat Festival I experienced last year, which left me a deep impression. In the morning, my family and I brought some zongzi, a snack made from glutinous rice and meat, to a riverside and ceremoniously(隆重地 郑重其事地) threw them into it as a tribute(表敬意的礼物/颂辞/行为) to Qu Yuan. Subsequently, a dragon boat race was held. Actually, it was my first time experiencing this event in person. To my surprise, some of the competitors were even younger than me. I was deeply impressed by their exceptional performances and courage. Certainly / (Immersed in the pleasant atmosphere), I cheered for those players with great enthusiasm and at the peak of my voice. In the afternoon, we went to the park, where all the celebrations led up to a thrilling dragon boat race as the highlight of the festival. Meanwhile, some wormwood(艾草) and calamus(菖蒲) were hung on the door to avoid the evil spirits. Despite some tiredness, I felt excited and relaxed. Frankly speaking, I can’t wait for next Dragon Boat Festival. My Mid-autumn Festival Experience The Mid-Autumn Festival, one of the most popular traditional festivals in China, falls on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month. It is a great occasion for families to get together. It means harvest and reunion, the celebration of which has been an integral(必要的 不可或缺的) part of traditional Chinese culture.
