Glad hearing that your countries' traditions,culture and historical events.These make me so amazing and I wish I can enjoy your festivals one day.You will warmly welcome me to enjoy your home traditions,aren't you? I'm from "Myanmar".I also have my country's festivals to introduce you that can cause your mind delightful.The majority of Myanmar people believe in Buddha and so there are a lot of festivals about religion.Among them,Thadingyut,as known as Lighting Festival,is the most second prominent between Myanmar people.It is celebrating to honor the gratitude of the motherhood.It is the festival that people welcome back Budda's descend from heaven to world after he preached Abhidhamma to his mother Maya who was reborn as a male in the heaven.This festival holds at the full moon day of Thadingyut,the seven month of Myanmar calendar. During this festival,Buddhists usually go to the monasteries and offer some food to monks.Some Buddhists fast on the full moon day of Thadingyut.Moreover,there are a lot of food stalls that sell a variety of Myanmar traditional food and shops,that sell toys,kitchen utensils,and other useful stuff on most of the streets.Young people pay respect (we say 'gataw' in Burmese Language)to the older to forgive their wrongdoings throughout the year.Giving big notes as pocket money to the younger is one of the signs of Thadingyut festival.After you've read this,I'm sure that you want to enjoy this festival.I'm waiting your receiving with a big smile from Myanmar.Welcome from "Myanmar"(Myanmar pyi ma jyo so par tal),let enjoy this festival together.

I prefer to write about a nice celebration which is common between nearly 9 countries of the world. We celebrate Nowrooz on 1st, Farwardin each year. People wear new clothes and meet their friends and families. In Kabul, people usually collect together in an special place which named Sakhi. The celebration has many tips which are as follows: Fist of all, a person reads the holy Quran for some minutes. Then usually a religious leader talks about situation of people life and hope all the best for all. Next, a person reads an announcement of presidential palace which explains the opinion of the President. After this formal part, some people start the main part of celebration. In this part, some exact people elevate the Jahinda that is a long wood. Jahinda must stand in exact place and only by one movement. In this progress, all people are cheering and shouting. Finally, people traditionally refer and anallyse the whole situation of new year by how moves the Jahinda. If it moves quickly, people conclude that the year will be very well and the Nation will live in peace and quiet. On the other hand, if it doesn't move quickly and easily, they often infer that next year won't be very well. It is obvious that things change by time. Now, the young generation don't believe on this kind of analysing, but the traditional of celebration is alive and it also expands and improves year by year. This year, we couldn't celebrate it because of COVID_19. I hope to celebrate it next year.

Hi everyone, it's amazed reading all traditions that you have and how can we be relationated in this forum.

Also people get out with their family to the ceremony in the lima cathedral dressing purple clothes and praying and more things.

Hi everyone! I am from Myanmar. Really nice reading and it always makes me amazing about different tradition in different countries. Here in Myanmar, have a lot of tradition. Among them, Thadingyut, also known as lighting tradition, is the most favorite one. Normally, held on the full moon day of the Burmese lunar month of Thandingyut, three day of light, the day before full moon, the full moon day and the days after. Illuminations are there to celebrate the anniversary of Buddha's return from the celestial abode where he had spent the lent teaching the celestial about his law.

Hi there, It's fun to read about different traditions being practised all over the globe. I am from the Sub-continent. We celebrate many traditions here but i would like to particularly mention Jashn-e-Baharan sometimes referred to as Basant. It is a way of celebrating the spring season. A kite flying festival is being held and people gather on their roof tops to fly kites and cheer the ones participating. It is a very enthusiastic and colourful tradition :)

Hi everyone, I would like to talk about you about one of our traditional days. Ramazan days are very holy days to us. We gather with relatives and friends having dinner. Everyone dress well and give ecah others gifts. We go to mosques to pray and celebrate these holy day during one month. It is special and greateful times for us.

Hi everyone from Armenia. It was so interesting and useful to read and get informed about your national traditions. I am from Armenia and frankly saying we are too traditional. As our story started about from 2500 BC I can say that every day has its own tradition coming from the depths of history. The most of traditions are conected with religion. One of my favorite festival is Vardavar. On this day people of social groups drench each othe with water.Although we are Christians, Vardavar's history dates back to pagan times. During the hole day, people are allowed to douse strangers wit water. There can't be enyone who is dry on this day.

Hello everyone! It is very interesting to discover a little more about different traditions from different countries, I am from Brazil, a very large multicultural country with full of traditions, but one that I particularly like is the Festa Junina, which is celebrated throughout June, with bonfires, hot drinks, delicious cakes and sweets and of course a lot of music and dance, where people dress like peasants with their hats and boots and dance the typical dances of each region. It is a lot of fun!
