How many days are left until National Day 2021?

National Day is a statutory holiday that falls on October 1 of the Gregorian calendar each year. In 2021, it falls on August 25 of the lunar calendar, which is Friday.
The evolution of National Day
The term National Day first appeared in my country's Western Jin Dynasty. The writer Lu Ji recorded in his writing that "National Day is the only day that brings benefits." National Day is a national celebration. In the feudal era, the only national celebrations were the emperor’s enthronement and birthday. Therefore, the emperor’s birthday or enthronement day was called "National Day". After the founding of the People's Republic of China, an agreement was reached at the fourth meeting of the Central People's Government Council to designate the founding day of the People's Republic of China, October 1 of each year, as National Day.
After the establishment of this holiday, the way of celebrating National Day has changed many times over the decades. Between 1950 and 1959, in the early days of the founding of New China, there were large-scale celebrations and military parades almost every year; and between 1960 and 1970, in response to the policy of building the country through diligence and thrift, only grand rallies and mass parades were held in front of Tiananmen Square every year, but no military parades. From 1971 to 1983, National Day was celebrated through large-scale garden parties. In the following years, National Day is celebrated in different forms every year.

Customs and Habits
On National Day, all countries hold celebrations in various forms to strengthen their people's patriotism and enhance national cohesion. Countries also congratulate each other. Every five or ten years, when the National Day comes, some countries will expand the scale of the celebrations. To celebrate National Day, governments usually hold a National Day reception hosted by the head of state, head of government or foreign minister, and invite envoys and other important foreign guests stationed in the local area to attend. But there are also countries that do not hold receptions, such as the United States and the United Kingdom.
