The Central People’s Government has announced that since 1950, the first day of the tenth day of each year is the National Day, the day on which the People’s Republic of China is proclaimed.

The National Day of the People’s Republic of China is a symbol of the country. It emerged with the founding of New China and has become particularly important. It has become the symbol of an independent country and reflects the state and political system of our country. The National Day is a new and nationwide festival, which bears the function of reflecting the cohesion of our country and nation. At the same time, the large-scale celebration on National Day is also a concrete manifestation of the government’s mobilization and appeal.

The three basic characteristics of the National Day celebration are to show national strength, enhance national confidence, reflect cohesion and give play to appeal.

The origin of the festival On December 2, 1949, the resolution adopted at the fourth meeting of the Central People’s Government Committee stated: “The Central People’s Government Committee hereby declares that since 1950, October 1, the great day on which the People’s Republic of China was proclaimed, has been the National Day of the People’s Republic of China“

This is the origin of the “October 1” as the “birthday” of the People’s Republic of China, that is, the “National Day”.
