Shangsi Festival
Shangsi Festival (), also known as the Double Third Festival (), is an ancient Chinese festival celebrated on the third day of the third month of the Chinese calendar. During the festival people would go for an outing by the water, picnic, and pluck orchids. It is also a day for invoking cleansing rituals to prevent disease and get rid of bad luck. The day is also traditionally considered to be a possible birthday of the Yellow Emperor.〔Nedostup, R. Superstitious Regimes: Religion and Politics of Chinese Modernity Harvard University Press: Cambridge 2009〕
The ancient traditions of Shangsi is mostly celebrated by a few local communities today, such as the ancient village of Xinye which holds elaborate ancestor worship ceremonies on this day.
The great calligrapher Wang Xizhi mentions this festival in his famous work ''Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Poems'', written in regard to the Orchid Pavilion Gathering during the Six Dynasties era.
This holiday is also celebrated in Korea, where it is called ''Samjinnal'' or ''sangsa'', and in Japan as ''Hinamatsuri''.
