For instance, Chinese people celebrate Spring Festival for thousands of years in the name of family reunion. No matter where you live, Chinese people head back to their home during that period. Take traditional Chinese food as another examle. 'Zongzi' is the principal food in Qingming Festival in hornor of their ancestors. No matter how many other options available, people stick to it and this custom has lasted for decades. Indeed, valuable traditions are the quientessece of a culture which cannot be shacked easily by advanced technology.
