National Day (Chinese: 国庆节; pinyin: guóqìng jié; lit. 'national celebration day'), officially the National Day of the People's Republic of China (中华人民共和国国庆节), is a public holiday in Trung Quốc celebrated annually on 1 October as the national day of the People's Republic of Trung Quốc, commemorating Mao Zedong's formal proclamation of the establishment of the People's Republic of Trung Quốc on 1 October 1949. The Chinese Communist Party victory in the Chinese Civil War resulted in the Kuomintang retreat to tát Taiwan and the Chinese Communist Revolution whereby the People's Republic of Trung Quốc "replaced" the Republic of Trung Quốc.[1][2]
Although it is observed on 1 October, another six days are added to tát the official holiday, normally in lieu of the two weekend breaks around 1 October, making it a de facto public holiday comprising seven consecutive days also known as Golden Week (黄金周; huángjīn zhōu) with specifics regulated by the State Council.[3] Festivities and concerts are usually held nationwide on this day, with a grand military parade and mass pageant sự kiện held on select years.[A] The parade held on 1 October 2019 marked the 70th anniversary of the People's Republic of Trung Quốc.
History[edit]
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) defeated the incumbent Kuomintang (KMT) nationalist government of the Republic of Trung Quốc in the Chinese Civil War that took place from 1927 to tát 1950 except for a brief alliance against nhật bản in the Second Sino-Japanese War. In its aftermath, the nationalist government withdrew to tát the island of Taiwan, previously a prefecture of the Qing Empire that was ceded to tát nhật bản under its colonial rule from 1895 to tát 1945.
The People's Republic of Trung Quốc was founded on 1 October 1949, with a ceremony celebrating the forming of the Central People's Government taking place in Tiananmen Square in its new national capital of Peking (previously Peiping) on the same day that year.[5] The first public parade of the new People's Liberation Army took place there, following the address by the country's first Chairman Mao Zedong officially declaring the formal establishment of the Republic.[6] The Central People's Government passed the Resolution on the National Day of the People's Republic of China on 3 December 1949, and declared that 1 October is the National Day.
National celebrations[edit]
National Day marks the start of a Golden Week, a weeklong public holiday.[7][8][9]
The day is celebrated throughout mainland Trung Quốc, Hong Kong, and Macau with a variety of government-organized festivities, including fireworks and concerts, as well as sports events and cultural events. Public places, such as Tiananmen Square in Beijing, are decorated in a festive theme. Portraits of revered leaders, such as Mao Zedong, are publicly displayed.[10] The holiday is also celebrated by many overseas Chinese.
