Happy Chinese Lunar Year

January 16, 2023

Here I'd like to share with you some of the traditional customs we will do during the holiday.

1) Paste up spring couplets

Originally the couplets used by people to avoid evil and welcome good fortune in ancient times. Because it is a kind of couplet, it is usually posted in pairs, and the double number also symbolizes good luck in Chinese culture.

2) New Year's Family Reunion Dinner

For many people, the most anticipated and important activity during the Spring Festival is to eat the New Year's Eve dinner. In the sound of firecrackers, the whole family sat together, had dinner together, and welcomed the new year together. The New Year's Eve dinner, also known as the reunion dinner, is the last meal on the Lunar New Year's Eve. This meal must also be quite rich. Generally speaking, everyone pays attention to eating fish, which symbolizes that there is more than enough for each year. There will also be dumplings, wonton, yuan xiao, long noodles or rice cakes and other staple foods.

3) Set off fireworks/firecrackers

As the legend, fireworks and firecrackers were first used to drive away the monster Nian. Now, fireworks and firecrackers are mainly used to increase the festival atmosphere and make the New Year happier.

4) Lucky money

When I was a child, the happiest thing during the new year was to receive the lucky money.

At last, Happy Chinese New Year to you too!

Wishing you good luck and prosperity in 2023.
