The Englishmen know and keep them up carefully. They find them very important. The Marble Championship This is one of the old English customs. The winner of this Champion gets a silver cup which is called Morris Dancing. Morris Dancing is a festival for people who dance with handkerchiefs or big sticks in their hands. The Boat Race This nice tradition takes place on the river Thames in spring. This is a sport competition between a team from Oxford University and a team from Cambridge University. The Grand National horse race It is the most famous horse race in the world. It takes a place near Liverpool usually in spring too. A lot of people enjoy watching it. Halloween This holiday has a Celtic origin. According to this old tradition a lot of children put on unusual costumes on the 31st of October. Bonfire Night You can see children with figures, made of straw and sacs and dressed in old clothes according to this tradition on November 5. British traditions England is traditionally the land of clubs, pubs, gardens, football and the left- hand driving. British tea The British people like drinking tea. 5 o'clock tea is a famous English tradition. English clubs One of English traditions is different clubs. A club is an organization for people of the same interests who like meeting together for rest and discussions. Gardening This tradition is very popular with a lot of people in Britain. That's why there are so many gardens in Great Britain. Traditional ceremonies We can see a lot of traditional ceremonies in Great Britain, for example changing of the Guard, mounting the Guards and the Ceremony of the Keys. They have been preserved since old times. Conclusion It was very interesting for me to know about English traditions. I think the more historical traditions the country has the more cultural level it has. People of every country should know their traditions especially young people.
