At the Hat Festival in Ireland, everyone wears a green hat and green clothes. Where did this custom come from?

Ireland has a special festival, a vibrant green festival. This festival is Saint Patrick's Day. Every year on March 17, local residents will wear green clothes and green hats and go to Berlin to commemorate St. Patrick.

Why do we all wear green clothes? This is related to the representative figure of Ireland, clover, and this festival is also to commemorate St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. St Patrick was originally from England, but he had a different love for Ireland. As a missionary, he studied in an Irish monastery and eventually became a priest. He has been in Ireland since he became a priest, and spent the rest of his life teaching and baptizing Irish people.

Ireland persuaded the Irish at that time to convert to Christianity. In order to better express his thoughts, he took off the clover to introduce the meaning of the trinity of the father, the son and the holy spirit in Christianity, and the Irish began to believe in Christianity slowly, so the national flower of Ireland was clover.

After his death, St Patrick was deeply loved by Irish people, so in order to commemorate him, the locals positioned him as the patron saint of Ireland. On that day, not only Irish people celebrate this festival, but people all over the world are also infected and carnival together to celebrate this carnival.

This festival originally belonged to Ireland, but as Irish descendants spread all over Europe and America, it gradually became a common festival in western countries.

On that day, according to traditional customs, people mostly wore yellow and green clothes and painted their faces with green paints. Cheerful music, bright colors, festivals in Dublin, songs and laughter pervade every corner of the city and attract a large number of Chinese and foreign tourists.
