Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year, also known as Spring Festival, is the most important traditional festival celebrated by Chinese people. It is typically observed from the 1st to the 15th day of the first lunar month in the Chinese calendar, which usually falls between late January and mid-February. During this time, Chinese families come together to enjoy meals, exchange gifts, and participate in various cultural activities such as dragon and lion dances, fireworks, and the hanging of red lanterns. The festival is a time to honor ancestors and deities, and to wish for good luck, prosperity, and happiness in the new year.
