Etiquette of respecting the elderly on Double Ninth Festival
The ninth day of the ninth lunar month is the Double Ninth Festival in China. In China, nine is a positive number. Because the month and date of this festival are nine, it is called Chongyang.

There are customs such as climbing mountains, drinking chrysanthemum wine and hanging dogwood on the Double Ninth Festival. According to legend, these customs came from the story of Huan Jing and Fei Changfang in the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is said that these customs have the function of eliminating disasters and avoiding adversity. In Taiwan Province Province, the Double Ninth Festival is a crisp autumn season, which is suitable for flying kites. Flying kites has gradually become a very popular activity in the Double Ninth Festival.
Today's Double Ninth Festival has been given a new meaning. Because "99" and "99" are homophonic, they mean longevity, health and longevity. 1989, China skillfully combined tradition with modernity, and designated the ninth day of the ninth lunar month as the festival for the elderly. Respecting the elderly is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation and occupies an important position in the ideological field. On this day, many units organize retired people to enjoy the autumn scenery, and the society also carries out various activities to help the elderly. The younger generation of some families will also help their elders to go to the suburbs or prepare some delicious meals for the elderly. Respect for the elderly has become a very important theme of today's Double Ninth Festival.
Every important festival has special food, and the Double Ninth Festival is no exception. The food that should be served on the Double Ninth Festival is Double Ninth Cake. Because of the homonym of "cake" and "high", eating Chongyang cake symbolizes "everything is high" and contains the meaning of blessing.
The Double Ninth Festival has become a diversified festival through the evolution of past dynasties. Personally, I think that climbing mountains and flying kites can strengthen the body and regulate the body and mind. After that, the festival for the elderly carried forward the virtues of traditional filial piety and thinking of the source, which not only made the festival full of human feelings, but also gave the traditional folk festivals a new connotation of building a harmonious society.
