Assignment 1 Festival

After brain storming some few days,  I had some idea to my Assignment about Festival.

First idea, I was thinking about QingMing Festival. Is it Special? Ya, I think so!
This is my research about Qingming Festival about picture:

So, what is QingMing Festival?

The Qingming Festival, Clear Bright Festival, Ancestors Day or Tomb Sweeping Day is a traditional Chinese festival on the 104th day after the winter solstice (or the 15th day from the Spring Equinox), usually occurring around April 5 of the Gregorian calendar. Astronomically it is also a solar term. The Qingming festival falls on the first day of the fifth solar term, named Qingming. Its name denotes a time for people to go outside and enjoy the greenery of springtime and tend to the graves of departed ones.

Qingming has been regularly observed as a statutory public holiday in Taiwan and in the Chinese jurisdictions of Hong Kong and Macau. Its observance was reinstated as a public holiday in mainland China in 2008, after having been previously suppressed by the ruling Communist Party in 1949.

Second, I have another idea on Drum Festival!
Here is some research about Drum Festival: www.malaysiaworlddrums.com

This is the poster of Seoul Drum Festival! I like it so much!

It is quite hard to find about the picture, but I like drum since young! I think likely I will go more through about my interests: DRUM

So any suggestion on my 2 Festival? Hope getting advice from the blogger, YOU! 

I will decide later that I will go for which festival!
Thank You
