On March 31, the Shangsi Festival—also known as the Double Third Festival—marks the vibrant welcoming of spring. Rooted in history, this traditional event dates back to the Tang Dynasty, when people turned colorful skirts into makeshift tents for elegant "skirt tent banquets."
Fast forward to today: young people in the Greater Bay Area are reviving the age-old festival by donning traditional Hanfu and embracing the spirit of spring in a modern, lively way. This perfect fusion of ancient charm and contemporary style reminds us that traditions never fade—they evolve and flourish. 🌸
