What is the holiday when I miss my family more?

There is a famous sentence in the famous poet Wang Wei's "Living in the Mountain and Thinking of Shandong Brothers": I miss my relatives twice during the festive season. The whole poem expresses the poet's yearning for his hometown and relatives. So which traditional festival in China does the festival in this poem correspond to? Every festive season, I miss my parents more, which corresponds to the important traditional festival of China, the Double Ninth Festival. Double Ninth Festival, also known as Double Ninth Festival, is a traditional festival of Han nationality, which falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month every year. Together with New Year's Eve, Tomb-Sweeping Day and Zhongyuan Festival, it is called the four traditional ancestor worship festivals in China.

The origin of the Double Ninth Festival is very early, which can be traced back to the pre-Qin period. The Record in Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals contains: (September) Ordering the family to slaughter, preparing for collection, and introducing five important things. The Tibetan emperor's book is collected in the holy warehouse, and it is only respectful. It's a day, great emperor, and I'm going to tell the son of heaven. It can be seen that at that time, when the crops were harvested in autumn and September, there were activities of offering sacrifices to the emperor and ancestors to thank them for their kindness.

In the Tang Dynasty, the Double Ninth Festival was designated as an official festival. From then on, the court and the people celebrated the Double Ninth Festival together, and various activities were carried out during the festival. In the Song Dynasty, the Double Ninth Festival was more lively. Dream of China in Tokyo recorded the grand occasion of the Double Ninth Festival in the Northern Song Dynasty. "Old Wulin Stories" also records that the court of the Southern Song Dynasty resumed on the eighth day and waited for a grand amusement the next day. In the Ming dynasty, the eunuchs and concubines in the palace began to eat flower cakes together to celebrate from the first day of junior high school. On the ninth Double Ninth Festival, the emperor will personally climb the Long Live Mountain to watch the victory, so as to celebrate his autumn ambition. In the Qing Dynasty, the customs of the Ming Dynasty still prevailed.

Since 1980s, some places in China have designated the ninth day of September in the summer calendar as the festival for the elderly, advocating the whole society to establish the atmosphere of respecting, loving and helping the elderly. From 65438 to 0989, the China government designated the ninth day of the ninth lunar month as the festival for the elderly and the festival for respecting the elderly. 201212 On February 28th, the National People's Congress of China voted to pass the newly revised Law on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of the Elderly. The law clearly stipulates that the ninth day of the ninth lunar month is the festival for the elderly every year.
