The cultural event that I attended was the Cincinnati festival of lights. The location was at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical garden where there were hundreds of exotic animals. The Cincinnati Zoo is ranked one of the top zoos in America, because of all the exotic animals, species, and several varieties of plants. The festival of lights is there are over a hundred lights, and the zoo is decorated in various colors and it’s well lit up, it’s best to attend the festival at night. At the festival of lights they have a schedule of various events that take place, when my family and I attended we watched polar express in 4d; Winter Wonders with puppets, we all enjoyed our selves. There were several other activities that took place that we attended those were just two of my favorite. I believe that going to the zoo was a cultural event because, seeing the animals and watching how they live was just very different. Compared to the culture of humans and the way most live, humans aren’t suppose to live outside, were suppose to be sheltered, compared to animals most are born outside raised outside and very exotic, they can survive in the outdoors. Most animals have to be trained if you want to take them into human care. Although it is not common to train exotic animals unless they are coming within any contact of humans, there way of living is usually endangered. That’s why when one sees a human in any type of contact most animals have previously been trained. When looking at how this is a cultural event I see that it is a drastic difference between the two humans and animals. The way the live, eat and survive. Overall I enjoyed the festival of lights and I would go back again.
