Warming up必修三What kind of festival
did we just celebrate?…Chinese festivalsSpring FestivalThe 1st day of the first lunar monthAccording to the Chinese legends, there was a giant beast Nian who used to swallow humans in a single bite. Relief from the horrifying beast came only when people realized that Nian was scared of red color and loud noises. They started bursting crackers and used red color to scare the beast. Since then, this day was named as Guo Nian meaning “Pass over the Nian”.
