陰歷9月這天，正值秋高氣爽，適合旅行觀光。所以，一到金秋九月，不論男女老少，都喜歡在此時(shí)旅行登高。

登高可以驅(qū)除霉運(yùn)，還意指“晉升高位”。這也是古人為什么很重視這一傳統(tǒng)俗。登高之所以受人重視，特別受老人重視，是因?yàn)槿藗冋J(rèn)為登高還意寓“登頂長(zhǎng)壽”。除此之外，人們還相信登山能使人健康長(zhǎng)壽。

在九月登高既是件愜意放松的事，又是件可以欣賞到自然之美的幸事。重陽節(jié)登高，在唐代就開始盛行了，古時(shí)也有很多跟重陽登高有關(guān)的詩歌：

菊花酒的釀造十分獨(dú)特。古時(shí)，人們?cè)诰旁戮湃詹烧�新鮮的菊花和菊花葉，然后把它們和谷粒一起釀制成酒。等到來年的同一時(shí)候再打開品嘗。據(jù)說，菊花酒具有清神明目，減肥降血壓，治療胃病的功效。因此，可以飲菊花酒可以使人長(zhǎng)壽。另外，飲菊花酒還有驅(qū)邪抗寒的效用。

重陽糕又名“菊花糕”或“花糕”重陽糕的歷史可追溯到周朝。相傳，最初人們是為了慶祝秋收而制作重陽糕的。到現(xiàn)在，就逐漸發(fā)展為在重陽佳節(jié)人們常吃的一種糕點(diǎn)了。

放紙鳶

紙鳶類似于風(fēng)箏。據(jù)中國(guó)傳統(tǒng)俗，人們通常在清明節(jié)放風(fēng)箏。但每逢清明，也是雨紛紛的時(shí)節(jié)，因而并不適合放風(fēng)箏。相比之下，重陽節(jié)這天，秋高氣爽，最適合戶外放風(fēng)箏。
