Chinese New Year – often called Chinese Lunar New Year although it actually is lunisolar – is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays.It is an all East and South-East-Asia celebration.In China it is known as "Spring Festival," owing to the difference between Western and traditional Chinese methods for computing the seasons.It marks the end of the winter season.The festival begins on the first day of the first month in the traditional Chinese calendar and ends with * Festival which is on the 15th day.Chinese New Year's Eve,a day where Chinese families gather for their annual reunion dinner,is known as "Eve of the Passing Year."
Within China,regional customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese new year vary widely.People will pour out their money to buy presents,decoration,material,food,and clothing.It is also the tradition that every family thoroughly cleans the house to sweep away any ill-fortune in hopes to make way for good incoming luck.Windows and doors will be decorated with red colour paper-cuts and couplets with popular themes of "happiness","wealth",and "longevity".On the Eve of Chinese New Year,supper is a feast with families.Food will include such items as pigs,ducks,chicken and sweet delicacies.The family will end the night with firecrackers.Early the next morning,children will greet their parents by wishing them a healthy and happy new year,and receive money in red paper envelopes.The Chinese New Year tradition is to reconcile,forget all grudges and sincerely wish peace and happiness for everyone.
Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Chinese Lunisolar Calendar.The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions.Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most.
