Synopsis
CELEBRATE CHINESE CULTURE is an epic series of books about the different facets of Chinese heritage throughout history. China’s modernity cannot be fully understood without looking into its glorious past of milestones in scientific inventions, political exploits and artistic distinction.

In this volume, Chinese Folk Customs, we look at folk beliefs in Chinese society, and how they have influenced the practices of the people in all aspects of life: birth, coming-of-age, marriage and death.
