The Chinese love to celebrate with festivals. Their biggest celebration is Chinese New Year, or The Spring Festival, and it ends on the first full moon of the lunar year. The holiday lasts for two weeks and hundreds of millions of fireworks are set off all over the country. Long ago, a famous poet named Qu Yuan threw himself into the river when he became heartbroken. As people rushed to save him in their boats, they threw rice to feed the fish so they would not eat the beloved man. Today they honor him with the Dragon Boat Festival and people leave work to have boat races and toss rice into the river. For Mid-Autumn Festival the Chinese like to visit family and eat moon cakes. Come along and let’s see what other fun awaits as we “Celebrate in China!”
