The double ninth festival, the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, is known as the "double ninth", which is also known as the "double ninth", which is also known as the "climbing festival". There are also nine, dogwood, chrysanthemum festival and so on. Since September 9th "jiujiu" homophone is "long", there is permanent meaning, so often on this day ancestor worship and implementation of the old activities. The double ninth festival is also the fourth festival of Chinese traditional festivals. On December 28, 2012, the law is clear on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. 重陽節，農曆九月初九，二九相重，稱為“重九”，民間在該日有登高的風俗，所以重陽節又稱“登高節”。還有重九節、茱萸、菊花節等說法。由於九月初九“九九”諧音是“久久”，有長久之意，所以常在此日祭祖與推行敬老活動。重陽節與除、清、盂三節也是中國傳統節日裡祭祖的四大節日。2012年12月28日，法律明確每年農曆九月初九為老年節。
