Discussion What are the differences and similarities between the two festivals? How should we treat Chinese traditional festivals and some western festivals?

10 Nowadays, some people pay more attention to Valentine’s Day than Qiqiaojie, which was once one of the most popular festivals in ancient China. Anyway, each festival in China has its own tale and meaning. So we should hold on to our own festivals and culture, as well as pass them on from generation to generation. We should never allow some western festivals to take the place of Chinese traditional festivals.
