#芝加哥河 "Dye Green" to welcome St. Patrick's Day ##圣帕特里克节 #
St. Patrick's Day (st. patrick's day) Patrick's Day) is a traditional Festival of Western religions that falls on March 17 every year and marks the anniversary of St. Patrick's death in the fifth century AD. In Ireland, this traditional festival has been around for over a thousand years. During this festival, people in the Christian Lent period (during which Christians can only eat vegetarians) can drink, dance and enjoy meat (most families make traditional bacon cabbage, although the editor has little appetite).
Saint Patrick was the patron saint of the Apostles of Ireland and its country. Born in Fifth-Century Roman England, he was kidnapped and brought to Ireland as a slave at the age of 16. Although he later succeeded in slipping away, he still returned to Ireland and was praised for bringing Christianity to the people. In Ireland, he is no less famous than Jesus.
You may have been swept away by The Green River in Chicago recently, right?
There are many netizens who frantically diss pour paint into the river is not environmentally friendly, not beautiful, not "auspicious" and so on. But Westerners can't avoid green when they celebrate St. Paul's Day, and there is even a saying that "if you want to get by, you must bring a little green on your body." Therefore, if you have the opportunity to go abroad to experience St. Paul's Day, it is recommended to wear a green coat, and then bring a green badge. The green hat is enough, anyway, there will be a chance to wear it later (no.
It is the official color of Ireland. St. Patrick also wore green. Just like our Chinese red, the Spring Festival will also be prosperous. Red is a lucky color for us, and the green of Ireland is also a truth. There is also a folk saying that wearing green will prevent you from being hurt by leprechaun (read it to me: Repulacon).
Xiaobian respects the traditional culture of each country, but it is still necessary to celebrate rationally within the legal range (just like we limit firecracker pollution during the Spring Festival). If pouring paint does not affect the natural ecology, but only to make the river green for a few days, it is reasonable (is it).
And then....
