There are a number of traditional events in China，but the one I would particularly to mention today is Spring Festival.
It is now well-known over the world that Chinese Lunar New Year is called spring festival. But little is known that there is a legend about a violent flesh-eating predatory mammal with the name of Nian. Nian destroyed all newly-harvested crops, swallowed people and other living creatures in one winter. So everybody was in great fear and anxiety. However, the villagers accidentally found out later that Nian was so afraid of very loud noise and red-colored things. People then get together to crack the bamboo to make very loud noise and stick red paper on their doors and windows to scare Nian away every year.
The celebrating activities have not changed much among Chinese. Family members always get together to have dinner at home and set off fireworks which sounds like the cracking bamboo. Couplets written on red paper can be found easily everywhere. Elders give lucky money in red envelopes to younger generations as a symbol of best wishes. As the lucky money usually comes in new bills, banks are also very busy at this time of year.
Although some customs is fading away among the younger generation, for instance, people now choose to have their Spring Festival dinner out in a restaurant, I believe Spring Festival would always be one of the most important traditional events in China. The primary reason for this is the tradition that Chinese cherish family a lot, Spring festival provides us a great opportunity to get around the table and toast each other.

Christmas is an annual holiday that, in Christianity, commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ.
Popular customs of the holiday include gift-giving, music, an exchange of greeting cards, church celebrations, a special meal, and the display of various decorations; including Christmas trees, lights, nativity scenes, and holly. In addition, Father Christmas (known as Santa Claus in some areas) is a popular figure in many countries, associated with the bringing of gifts for children.
Over the Christmas period, people decorate their homes and exchange gifts. In some countries, children perform plays re-telling the events of the Nativity, or sing carols that reference the event. Christmas, along with Easter, is the period of highest annual church attendance.
A special Christmas family meal is an important part of the celebration for many, and what is served varies greatly from country to country. In England and countries influenced by its traditions, a standard Christmas meal includes turkey, potatoes, vegetables, sausages and gravy, followed by Christmas pudding, mince pies and fruit cake.
