Traditional festivals express what they feel about China's traditional culture.

The Chinese nation has a long history. In the long historical development process, not only profound national culture has been formed, but also various national festivals have been formed ―― Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Chinese Valentine's Day, Mid-Autumn Festival, Double Ninth Festival and so on. These festivals have experienced vicissitudes, condensed the wisdom and feelings of the working people of past dynasties, and spread in the form that the masses loved. They intoxicated and yearned for generations of Chinese descendants with colorful folk culture, cultivated and tempered national character and personality with established folk etiquette, and carried forward national virtues and spirit with a happy and peaceful atmosphere. Its value of inheriting national blood, carrying forward national spirit, strengthening national cultural memory and psychological identity, maintaining national unity, social harmony and family harmony, stimulating and releasing emotions, and coordinating the relationship between man and nature is irreplaceable by any cultural form.

China traditional culture is the root of our nation's existence, the soul of the world and the foundation of inheritance. The traditional festival culture created and passed down by the working people in China is the most dynamic and influential culture with the most national characteristics and individuality, which embodies the core values of China traditional culture and vividly shows the spiritual world of the general public. "China traditional festivals condense the national spirit and feelings of the Chinese nation, bear the cultural blood and ideological essence of the Chinese nation, are an important spiritual bond for safeguarding national unity, national unity and social harmony, and are valuable resources for building advanced socialist culture." Today, we should use traditional festivals to promote the traditional culture of China. We should not only advocate the concept of civilized, harmonious, festive and thrifty festivals, but also enrich the contents and forms of traditional festivals. More importantly, we should dig deep into the cultural connotation of traditional festivals, let the general public know the origin of traditional festivals and the cultural spirit they contain, stimulate the enthusiasm of Chinese people to participate in festival activities, form the cultural consciousness of protecting spiritual homeland, and make China traditional festivals an important position to display and spread excellent national culture and carry forward and cultivate great nations.
