Why do you want to know about western festivals?

Whether it is Christmas Eve, Christmas or plot characters, many people in China like it, especially young people. So why are more and more people in China keen on western "foreign festivals"? The reason behind it is thought-provoking! As early as a long time ago, people in China generally liked traditional festivals in China, but now, they think western festivals are more popular with China people than traditional festivals in China. Whether children or young people like western festivals relatively, they seem a little indifferent to traditional festivals. What is the reason? The main reasons are as follows, which makes people think deeply! The first one: Western "foreign festivals" are lively, energetic and taboo. If you notice the time of western "foreign festivals", you will feel that western festivals are generally lively and energetic, like Valentine's Day, where two people can show their love. If you want to go out to play on Halloween, you can dress up and play together. This is mainly for fun, so it is very popular with young people and children, and traditional festivals in China have many taboos. People are under great pressure now, so they just want to relax during the holidays. This "foreign festival" has few taboos and is naturally popular. Have fun. The second point: the theme of western "foreign festivals" is different and novel. Have you noticed that every festival in the west needs different things? You want to eat apples on Christmas Eve, have Santa Claus at Christmas, and dress yourself in a novel way at Halloween. This is all for fun, mainly for fun, so it will naturally be welcomed by many people. This is also a major reason. After the western "foreign festivals" became more and more popular in China, some traditional festivals in China faded. The collision of these two cultures makes us feel that the traditional culture in China seems to have faded. Many children know that there are more festivals in the West than in China. This is not a good phenomenon. After all, China's traditional culture is the essence of culture, and we still have to pass it on. Therefore, we still need to popularize the knowledge of China's traditional culture. However, from the perspective of China, more and more people are keen on western "foreign festivals". The reasons behind this are thought-provoking. On the one hand, I feel that traditional festivals in China will no longer be popular. On the other hand, I can see that people are under great pressure and always want to use some festivals to decompress themselves. Looks a little distressed! I don't know which do you like better than the traditional festivals in China?
