It has been celebrated for over 2,000 years but was regarded as a festival during the Tang Dynasty (618—907). The festival came from an old story. Long ago, a monster in the river made villagers ill. So Huan Jing, a brave boy, went to visit a master. The master said, “Tomorrow is the ninth day of September and the monster will come out of the river. You should stop it.” Huan Jing went home and told the villagers to climb up a mountain with a special plant on their clothes. The monster came out of the water the next day. When it climbed the mountain, the monster smelt the special plant and became dizzy(眩晕的). Then, Huan Jing killed it. Since then, climbing mountains on the day of Chongyang Festival has become popular. Chongyang Festival is a very good time to climb the mountains. Families and relatives usually get together by climbing the mountains in this season. Also, it is good for health. People often climb the mountains and enjoy the beautiful scenery. People also eat Chongyang cake on that day.

It is on the 9th day of the 9th lunar month. Chongyang Festival will fall on October 29th this year. It has been celebrated for over 2,000 years but was regarded as a festival during the Tang Dynasty (618—907). The festival came from an old story. Long ago, a monster in the river made villagers ill. So Huan Jing, a brave boy, went to visit a master. The master said, “Tomorrow is the ninth day of September and the monster will come out of the river. You should stop it.” Huan Jing went home and told the villagers to climb up a mountain with a special plant on their clothes. The monster came out of the water the next day. When it climbed the mountain, the monster smelt the special plant and became dizzy(眩晕的). Then, Huan Jing killed it. Since then, climbing mountains on the day of Chongyang Festival has become popular. Chongyang Festival is a very good time to climb the mountains. Families and relatives usually get together by climbing the mountains in this season. Also, it is good for health. People often climb the mountains and enjoy the beautiful scenery. People also eat Chongyang cake on that day. In China, nine has the similar pronunciation with the word meaning “forever”, symbolizing (象征) longevity. Therefore, the Chinese government set the day as the Seniors’ Day. With the development in modern times, the Double Ninth Festival is gradually to be celebrated also as an Elder Day for young people to show their respects to the elderly.
