China, a large country with 1.3 billion people boasts a long history and
glorious culture. Festivals in particular, embody Chinese culture
on the one hand and enrich people's lives greatly on the other.
Because of China's very ancient history, her festivals are numerous.
They can be divided into many categories, of which the following
are the four major ones: Traditional Festivals are a reflection
of the Chinese traditional practices and morality of the people;
National Holidays are those designated as such by the Chinese government
to commemorate some special events; Ethnic Minority Festivals
are unique to the Chinese minority ethnic groups; and the tourism
festivals are associated with renowned Chinese scenic spots. No
matter what the kind of festival, it is a window through which
Chinese culture can be seen vividly and thoroughly.
