The origin of Chinese Mother’s Day

2014-5-2 11:55:00 China Food Science and Technology Network Mother’s Day is a regional festival in our country. This festival was first held in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

After the reform and opening up, Mother's Day has also been accepted by the mainland.

Starting in 1988 in Guangdong Province and in 1989 in Hangzhou and other cities, women's federations at all levels organized Mother's Day celebrations and included the selection of "good mothers" as one of the elements of the festival.

In February 1995, the Yingkou City Tourism Bureau organized several demonstration meetings based on the instructions of the city leaders and the spirit of the National Tourism Administration on the "95 Folk Customs Tour", and unanimously believed that using tourism resources and folk psychology to hold "Mother's Day" is the best way to promote

Excellent traditional culture and beneficial measures to build two civilizations.

The festival time is set during the World Mother's Day, and it has been agreed since then to maintain the inheritance and stability of the festival once a year and form a new folk festival.

From 1995 to 2005, "Wangershan Mother's Day" has been successfully held for eleven sessions, which not only promoted the development of the city's tourism industry, but also promoted the development of the city's economy and increased Yingkou's popularity.

The traditional virtues of the Chinese nation advocated by Mother's Day have been accepted by the masses. Respecting and caring for the elderly has become a common practice among the people, creating a friendly and harmonious social atmosphere for reform and opening up.

As the birthplace of "Wang'er Mountain Mother's Day", Xiong Yue holds a variety of garden activities in Wang'er Mountain Scenic Area every year.

This year is the twelfth "Wangershan Mother's Day", and preparations for the garden activities are in full swing.

"Wangershan Mother's Day" has now been listed as one of the top ten festivals in Liaoning Province and has been included in the "China Tourism Yearbook".
