I like Japanese culture because there are a lot of festivals in each season. For example, summer has fire work, winter has Christmas & Christmas Eve and Saint Valentine�s Day & White Day, spring has the Doll�s Festival and Children�s Day. When we watch the fire work, we usually wear the Japanese traditional clothes � Yukata. It�s a very beautiful and cute, so I like to wear it in summer. This festival is held in the many places. You know Christmas & Christmas Eve, so I think this style is similar. A couple give a present each other and spend time together. I think Saint Valentine�s Day is also similar, but women give men who she loves some chocolate, so only women give men in Japan. Instead of this festival, there is White Day that men give women who he loves or he gets the present. Does your county have this festival? The Doll�s Festival is a festival for girls and Children�s Day is a festival for boys. New Zealand doesn�t have some festival in summer, so I felt Japanese people like the festivals and of cause I also like it!!
