What do you think of the cultural differences between China and the West from the perspective of Chinese and Western festivals?

China has a long history, which provides space for the development of traditional festivals. China is an agricultural country, so agricultural activities make festivals more local. In western countries, religion is the center of culture and society, and Chinese medicine controls them through human belief in God, so festivals are closely related to Christianity, including Easter and religion. Westerners respect nature very much, but China people respect the collective and put individuals in it. Therefore, in traditional culture, westerners emphasize the individual, while China people inherit the Confucian collectivism, and compare China's knowledge to Valentine's Day in the west. Both of them are related to inner feelings and have profound cultural connotations. Relatively speaking, China's Tanabata focuses on recalling the legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl, while westerners use Valentine's Day to convey their feelings freely and inspire Valentine's Day, which is full of modern humanism and romance. China's method of making machines is rather out of date. The differences in Valentine's Day expressions reflect the personality differences between China people and foreigners. China people are ashamed to express their feelings, while westerners are bold and informal. although
