¡¡¡¡Have you ever seen more than 500,000 flowers together? It¡¯s hard to think of, you may say. But on October 1, you can see that many or even more flowers in Beijing!
¡¡¡¡In Tian'anmen Square, you can see big fountains
£¨ÅçȪ£©and more than 300,000 pots of red and yellow flowers around them!¡¡¡¡Parks in Beijing are also a sea of flowers. There are all kinds of things made of flowers including a dragon and even the Great Wall.
¡¡¡¡All these flowers were to celebrate the 55th National Day of the People¡¯s Republic of China.
¡¡¡¡National Day is a day to remember the start of a country. In some countries, it is called Independence Day.
¡¡¡¡People in different countries celebrate their National Days in different ways.
¡¡¡¡In China, National Day means a long seven-day holiday. People can have a rest from work and travel around. For some important years, like the 50th birthday of the country, there are big soldiers¡¯ parade in Paris. French people get together in cafes to enjoy holiday music and food.
¡¡¡¡Independence Day of the US is on July 4. On that day, it became independent from Britain. Most Americans celebrate the day with family and friends. They have picnics and watch firework shows. Greek people wear their national dress on their National Day on March 25. Flags fly everywhere. People go to church in the morning. However, in some countries like Britain, some people don¡¯t think the national day is important. The national day of Britain is the Queen¡¯s birthday in June, but not many people celebrate it.
