The Double Ninth Festival
The Double Ninth Festival is in autumn. On this day, people often go mountain climbing to enjoy the natural beauty of
autumn. The Double Ninth Festival is also a time to show respect and love to our elders. This is
because "double ninth" sounds like
the word "forever" in Chinese. On
this day, we wish our elders a long
and happy life.
