Nowadays, the great word about “Tradition” is disappearing and in danger
because of ignorance and other factors which cause to disappearance in
today’s world. However, we must inherit to our new generations after some
years, but How? If we have not enough knowledge and heritage from our
parents. How can we explain if they questioned us in some cases? No one
can explain about ignorance, so now we have to pay attention spearing out
tradition and maintain it for forever. Additionally, tradition is basic part of
nationality, but I can say in my country, inhabitants have kind to our
traditions and special celebrations, even government. In my opinion,
government also play a crucial role maintaining our cultural heritage
because of authority organize every important events as a holiday for
individuals and all people feel and on TV channels show about events and
they extend our traditional events among the tourists when they visited to
our historical buildings and regions.
In conclusion, tradition is related to culture and culture relies on people’s
behaviors.
