2. About Lunar Year
The Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese Chunjie, Vietnamese Tet, Korean Solnal,
and Tibetan Losar, also known as Spring Festival, is a festival celebrated in China
and other Asian countries that starts with the first new moon of the lunar calendar
and ends 15 days later with the first full moon.
Because the lunar calendar is based on lunar cycles, the dates of the holiday differ
slightly from year to year, beginning on both January 21 and February 20 on Western
calendars.
Houses are thoroughly cleaned about 10 days before the start of the new lunar year
to remove any bad luck that may be lingering inside, a concept known as "sweeping
of the grounds." New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are traditionally reserved for
family celebrations, which include religious ceremonies honoring ancestors.
3. Family members also acquire red envelopes (lai see) that include small amounts of
money on New Year's Day.
Dances and fireworks are common throughout the holidays, culminating in the
Lantern Festival on the final day of New Year's celebrations.
Traditional foods such as yuanxiao (sticky rice balls that represent family unity),
fagao (prosperity cake), and yusheng (raw fish and vegetable salad) are served on
this night.
The Lunar New Year festival has thousands of years of history and is steeped in
legend. Nian, a hideous beast said to feast on human flesh on New Year's Day, is one
legend.
