One of the important traditional festivals in my country is Tate Holiday. It’s celebrated on the first day of the Luna calendar. Tate is a place for everyone and also it is a time for everyone to eat delicious food and make the beautiful decorations. Before Tate, children will help their family to decorate the peach blossom. The old will clean their house to chase away the bad lucks in the new old year. The family members sit all around the flame for boiling the chunkei for family gathering. During Tate, the oldest people in the family and the adult will do the first footing. The children receive the lucky money from their parents. Some families also go traveling to relax. After Tate, the adult, the children will go to work and study again. Everyone brings a lot in hope for the new year. For my family, my family members all think that Tate is a time to strengthen the family bonds and maintain the relationship.
