My Experience During the Double Ninth Festival
As one of the most popular traditional festivals in China, the Double Ninth Festival is observed on the 9th day of the 9th lunar month, which is a great occasion to show respect for the elderly.
I still remember my family climbing Mount Songshan to celebrate the Double Ninth Festival last year. It took us an hour to get there by car. We stopped at the foot of the mountain and started climbing.
恩信实验
Since our grandfather is in his sixties, we walked slowly to make sure he was not too tired. We relaxed ourselves along the way by chatting with each other and taking photos. After we reached the top, we had a good rest. Then we took the cable cars (缆车) down the hill, which allowed us to enjoy the amazing sights.
The trip to Mount Songshan helped me to realize that it is important to have family trips so that we can communicate with each other and have fun together.
