Do you know anything about the four festivals?The Water Festival is the New Years celebrations that take place in Southeast Asian countries such as Burma, Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand as well as Yunnan, China. It is called the “Water Festival” by Westerners because people splash / pour water at one another as part of the cleansing ritual (仪式仪式) to welcome the new year. The act of pouring water is also a show of blessings and good wishes. It is believed that on this Water Festival, everything old must be thrown away, or it will bring the owner bad luck.The Dragon Boat Festival, also called the Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar. For thousands of years, the festival has been marked by eating zong zi and racing dragon boats. The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races, especially in the southern provinces where there are many rivers and lakes. This Regatta (赛舟会赛舟会) is given honour to the memory of the death of Qu Yuan. The Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like Christmas in the West. All people living away from home go back. The Spring Festival originated in the Shang Dynasty (c. 1600 BC-c. 1100 BC) from the peoples sacrifice (献祭献祭) to gods and ancestors at the end of an old year and the beginning of a new one.The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually in February or March in the Gregorian calendar.
