Double Ninth Festival (Chong-yang Festival) 重陽節
Double Ninth Festival is a traditional festival on 9th September of the lunar calendar. As the homonym of the double ninth in Chinese means permanence, people offer sacrifices to their ancestors and hold activities to pay respect to the elder. Local governments will also hold activities like giving presents to centenarians, inviting the elder to the feast, and holding an evening party. In addition, the customs of Double Ninth Festival are numerous: for instance, ascending a height, enjoying the beauty of chrysanthemum, drinking the chrysanthemum wine, wearing Cornus leaf, eating Double Ninth cake, flying a kite, and worshiping the ancestors. 農曆9月9日是傳統節日「重陽節」，由於農曆9月9日「九九」諧音是「久久」，有長久之意，所以常在此日祭祖與推行敬老崇孝活動。各地方政府都會舉辦敬老的活動，例如致贈禮物給當地的人瑞、準備酒席宴請老人，舉辦重陽敬老晚會等。重陽節的習俗眾多，如登高、賞菊、喝菊花酒、配戴茱萸、吃重陽糕、放風箏、祭祖等。 Photo 1: Head of Yunlin County are visiting a centenarian(2016) Photo 2: We are ascending a height |
