The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for elderly people in China. The festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar. As the Chinese word for “nine” sounds like the word for “long”, people celebrate the Double Ninth Festival to show their wishes for long life for elderly people.

There are many traditions for this festival. On that day, families get together and climb mountains for good luck and in the hope that elderly people will live much longer. They also drink chrysanthemum wine(菊花酒) and wear a plant called zhuyu to celebrate it. Both chrysanthemum and zhuyu are regarded as clean plants that can clean houses and cure(治疗) diseases.

Respecting elderly people is shown not only on this special day but also in daily life. For example, when an elderly person enters a room, everyone stands up. When there are several guests at the table, the host usually introduces them from the oldest to the youngest. When a younger person is presenting something to an older person, two hands are used. On a crowded subway or bus, younger people always offer their seats to elderly people.

It is a traditional virtue(美德) in China to respect elderly people. That's because the Chinese know that elderly people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn from. So, Chinese people are proud of being old. Besides, respecting elderly people today is respecting yourself tomorrow.
