In mid-June. school is out and nature has burst into life.It seems like the sun never sets. In fact, in the north of Sweden it doesn’t, and in the south only for an hour or two. This calls for celebration! Friends and family gather for the most typically Swedish tradition of all: Midsummer

At Midsummer, many begin their five-week holidays and everyone is in a hurry to get things done during the short summer season. Midsummer Eve is celebrated in the countryside. As always—and on the day before, everyone leaves town, everything closes and the city streets are suddenly quiet

Sweden's Midsummer festival takes place on the longest day of the year. The holiday celebrates the summer solstice (夏至). It holds enough tradition and fun to last the rest of the year.

Swedes like the world to be well-ordered, so Midsummer Eve is always on a Friday between 19 and 25 June. People often begin the day by picking flowers and making wreaths(花环)to place on the maypole(五月柱),which is a key part in the celebrations. People in colorful clothes dance around the maypole and sing songs.

Today, locals continue the tradition of weaving crowns(花冠) from green leaves and flowers.

Girls still pick seven different kinds of flowers to place under their pillows. According to local legend, if so, they will then dream of their future husbands.

In Sweden, every year many people enjoy themselves in fairy-tale scenes: peaceful lakes,amazing forests, and grassy paths. They walk through chest-high wild flowers and get close to nature. Finally they get a chance to slow down and enjoy Scandinavia’s short summer.
