Are you heading out to China for work or holiday? Would you like to learn more about Chinese customs in China? If so, Chinese Customs is a great book to start with. China is a vast country and a huge number of customs have become established over the centuries through the generations’ observance. Today these customs have become permanent traditions, ingrained in society as an integral part of Chinese culture.
This book was written by Xiang Wei, and published by Tuttle Publishing in October 2010. It is available to buy on Amazon. The book covers the background history and popular myths surrounding all the well-known festivals, including the Chinese New Year, the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, are explored and detailed in each colourful chapter.
As for a Chinese born Singaporean, I do find it interesting to read about some of the customs that are not popular or celebrate in Singapore like the Double Ninth Festival.
