The Origin of Chongyang Festival

1. Chongyang Festival, also known as the Double Nine Festival, is the ninth day of the ninth month on the lunar calendar every year. This festival originated from ancient folklore. According to the legend, a man named Huanjing rode a horse to ascend the heights on the day of Chongyang Festival and learned ways to eliminate disasters and avoid evil spirits, and eventually defeated the plague demon. Later, people designated September 9 as the Chongyang Festival in honor of Huanjing.

2. Chongyang Festival is one of the traditional Chinese festivals with rich cultural connotations. In traditional culture, nine is the number of yang, so Double Nine is considered to be the day with the heaviest yang energy, which is able to drive away evil spirits and avoid bad luck. On this day, people will climb high, enjoy chrysanthemums, drink chrysanthemum wine, and eat Chongyang cakes, etc., which symbolizes praying for a long and healthy life, expelling evil spirits and avoiding misfortunes, and having smooth and peaceful lives.

3. Chung Yeung Festival has been designated as one of the legal holidays in China and has been given the significance of respecting, loving and helping the elderly. During this festival, people will visit the elderly, organize activities to respect the elderly, and pass on the Chinese culture of filial piety.
