My favorite festival is the Spring Festival. It's usually celebrated in January or February. It's the most important festival of the year and it is a time when all the family gets together.
During the Spring Festival, people decorate the house with beautiful lights and flowers with their family. There is always a big meal on New Year's Eve and on New Year's Day. People wear their new clothes and visit friends and relatives.
It’s my favorite festival because I have lots of free time at this time of the year. It makes me feel happy and relaxed. I can always get lucky money so that I can buy whatever I want. What's more, My parents often take me to watch dragon and lion dancing. It's quite a bit fun.
