What day is Father s Day? Where does it come from?

Father's Day, which is Father's Day on August 8 of the Gregorian calendar every year, is the Father's Day set before the People's Republic of China.

Also known as the "88 Festival", the two "8" characters overlap on August 8, and become the word "father" after deformation, which is simple and easy to remember and loud.

It's China's own Father's Day. There's a huge historical background behind the establishment of this Father's Day:

On August 8, 1945 and August 8, 1934, the dawn of victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression had quietly arrived. In order to commemorate the fathers who sacrificed their lives for the country in the war, people with lofty ideals in Shanghai specially put forward the idea of Father's Day. Therefore, the Shanghai Academy of Scholars initiated the celebration of Father's Day, and the citizens immediately responded and held a warm celebration, feeling that the celebration of Father's Day is very necessary and meaningful.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, celebrities and gentlemen from all walks of life in Shanghai jointly requested Shanghai to **forward**, and set August 8, that is, the homonym of "Dad", as Father's Day. At that time, the **** attached great importance to this requirement, held a special meeting to discuss it, and finally passed it. In China, Father's Day is celebrated on August 8 every year.

In this way, August 8 was set as an exclusive holiday for fathers by the **** at that time.

Eight festivals, Father's Day, are both creative and fluid. However, non-Chinese areas cannot and will not be called that. For example, Father's Day in the United States, Canada, and other countries falls on the third Sunday of June.

Many Chinese diaspora in the U.S. usually celebrate Father's Day twice a year. One is Father's Day in the United States, which is the third Sunday in June every year, and the other is Father's Day in China, which is August 8 every year.

The most widespread date is on the third Sunday in June every year, and 52 countries and regions in the world celebrate Father's Day on this day.

On Father's Day, people choose specific flowers to express their respect and remembrance of their father, and people wear red roses to show their love for their surviving father, and white roses to express their mourning for their deceased father, a custom that has been passed down to this day, at first the date of Father's Day varies, and some places use dandelions as a symbol of Father's Day, and some places use white lilacs lined with green leaves to pay tribute to their fathers.
