The Chung Yeung Festival is a traditional Chinese folk festival celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar. "Nine" number in the "I Ching" for the number of yang, "nine" two yang number is heavy, so it is called "Chung Yeung"; because the sun and the moon are nine, so it is also known as "Chung Kau". It is also called "Chongjiu" because both the sun and the moon coincide with nine. Nine nine to the true, the beginning of a yuan, the ancients believed that the nine suns are auspicious days. In ancient times, the folk in the Chongyang Festival have climbed high to pray for blessings, worship God and ancestor worship and feasts to pray for life and other customs. Since then, it has added the connotation of honoring the elderly.
