Irish Culture

Celtic mythology

The history of Ireland is full of myths and legends, and Celtic mythology is the essence of Irish culture. In Ireland, people even believe that the Irish folklore itself has magic power. If people in house chanting about heroic adventures, the devil will not enter the gate.

For a long time, Celtic myth can only be circulated orally, and the most widely known story is the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the round table.

King Arthur is the legendary king of the ancient Britain. Once it was said that he is the leader of the round table knight, and known as the the "Once and Future King"(永恒之王）. King Arthur is a figure in ancient legends. So far, there is no substantial evidence to prove that he really exists. The most famous legend of King Arthur is the sword of stone；（石中剑）and the legend of the Holy Grail （圣杯传奇). There are also many famous figures in the stories including Merlin, cinnamon, Morgan Lily and so on, mostly from Thomas Malory's fantasy novel, "the death of King Arthur".

Nowadays, the legends of the King Arthur have become a kind of the pioneer of youth trend culture, which penetrate into various aspect such as animation, games, comics, movies, TV series and so on.

St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day is March 17th every year to commemorate St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. This festival originated in Ireland in the late fifth Century. Now it has become the national day of Ireland. As Irish descendants spread all over the world, St. Patrick's day has gradually become a holiday in some countries. The United States began to celebrate in March 17, 1737. The traditional color of St. Patrick's Day is green. (In the TV series "How I Met Your Mom", I was impressed by the madness and crazy parade of American young on the St. Patrick's Day.)

Leprechauns (小矮人)

The legend of Leprechauns (dwarf) is widely circulating in Ireland. These dwarfs are smaller than ordinary people, but cleverer than them. They are strong and taller than the hobbits. Leprechauns lives in the forest, and they seek for gold to dig earth, and then bury the gold. Legend says that as long as we go down to the end of the rainbow, we can find that gold.(It is said that many Europe countries, people will put a leprechauns statue in their garden that can guard their garden and bring fortune to them. )
