As many people have different cultures or festivals, we will excite to know what they  are. Water festival is one of my country's festivals. Every people can include in this festival.  There is no limitations like religion,  different ethnic and living standards. They celebrate it at April 13 to 16. Long time ago,  the King had it consecrated by Buddha himself and let the people pour the scented water on the image.  So they called it water festival because people are pouring with water. Water festival has the meaning of  cleaning blames and  welcoming Myanmar new year. We celebrate it widely in Nay Pyi Daw which is the capital city of Myanmar and Yangon which is crowded. If you  visit  Myanmar, I would like you to  recommend to hold water festival in Myanmar.

Khuado Festival is one of the most famous festivals in northern Chinstate especially among Tedim Zomi people in  all around the world. The word 'khua' means 'our community' and the word 'do' refers to 'chase the enemies away' or 'to attack'.

We usually celebrate Khuado festival after the harvest time in October and it can be last three to seven days in a year but the the celebration time can be different from one place to another place depending on the type of crops and vegetables.

Back in the days, at the festival time our grandparents gave offerings to the good spirit to be healthy and to get more foods next year by killing animals. However, nowadays, during the festival we avoid travelling far ways and gather together in one place and celebrate groups by groups of families.

This festival is one of my favourite festivals in a year because it is full of happiness and alot of fun.

Long time ago, the Chin people celebrated Tho Festival which was New Year for the Chin people. It was celebrated on the moon full day in October. This festival was celebrated to give meal to dead people whom were loved because people wished they were with them. The Chin people believed in goddess at that time. They were not Christian.
However, most of the Chin people believe in God, Jesus, nowadays. They are Christian, now. Therefor, they celebrate Tho festival only for New Year, not for giving meal to dead people. On that day, New Year, people dance different kinds of culture dances. Interestingly, they cook “Sathluak: pork and rice are mixed”.
