National Day Introduction:
National Day is a legal holiday established by a country to commemorate the country itself. They are usually the country's independence, the signing of the constitution, the head of state's birthday or other significant anniversaries; some are also the saint's day of the country's patron saint.
Although most countries have similar commemorative days, due to complex political relations, this holiday in some countries cannot be called National Day. For example, the United States only has Independence Day and no National Day, but the two have the same meaning.
In ancient China, the emperor’s accession to the throne and birthday were called "National Day". Today, China's National Day specifically refers to October 1, the anniversary of the formal founding of the People's Republic of China.
The oldest National Day in the world history is the National Day of San Marino. As far back as 301 AD, San Marino designated September 3 as its National Day.

National Day Activities:

1. Military Parade
After the founding of New China, according to the decision of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the military parade was listed as an important part of the National Day celebrations. From the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949 to the 10th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1959, New China held a large-scale National Day military parade in Tiananmen Square every year, for a total of 11 times.
2. Decorate with lights and colors
During the National Day in China, all enterprises and institutions hang up lanterns or banners with slogans such as "Happy National Day" to celebrate the day; bonsai and hydrogen balloons with slogans are placed in the square to welcome the National Day with a joyful atmosphere.
3. Flag-raising ceremony
On every National Day, the national flag of the People's Republic of China is raised at 6:10 a.m.
