Shortcoming of Festivals.
Although there are many interesting things people can get from the festivala, there are also some disadvantages.
The first thing is that it is normally very costly to celebrate a festival. Due to the fact that most festival aim to preserve and develop the traditional cultural heritages, the government is willing to spend a lot of money on this occasion. Besides, during the festival, most people do not work and only spend money on preparing food and buying expensive gifts for their ralatives and friends. That’s also a reason why it is said that a festival is often costly.
The second disadvantages is unsafe during a festival. It is estimated that there are hundred accidents during a festival, particularly road accidents. There are many dangerous festivals like cow- racing, elephant racing which may be very dangerous for people, especially for children. Moreover, in some fetival, when rushing to join the events, people may also cause other people to get hurt.
The last disadvantage is festivals may affect the environment seriously. People tend to throw away waste cans or bottles after a festival.
