Jiaozi, also known as Chinese dumplings, is a must-have during holidays in Northern China. It dates back to ancient times.
Jiaozi is one of the most important foods in Chinese New Year. Since jiaozi is in the shape of ancient Chinese gold or silver ingots(银锭), it symbolizes wealth(象征着财富). Traditionally, the members of a family get together to make dumplings on New Year's Eve.
They may hide a coin in one of the dumplings. The person who finds the coin will be likely to have good luck. As the Spring Festival marks the start of a new year, people choose to eat jiaozi in the hope of having a good future in the coming new year.
Based on your taste, you can make different kinds of Chinese dumplings using different fillings. There is no set rule as to what makes dumpling fillings. They can be anything from vegetables, meat or seafood. Whatever the fillings are, the wrapping(包) skill needs to be exquisite(精美的) to make jiaozi good-looking.
As China is a country with vast territory(幅员辽阔), there are differences in different areas in ways of making jiaozi or even serving it. For example, dumpling wrappers are made with a rolling stick in Beijing and Hebei Province, while in some parts of Inner Mongolia, wrappers are
hand-pressed.

Luckily, we have air conditioners(空调) to make ourselves cool in summer now. How did Chinese people in history stay cool in the hot season before they had air conditioners?
The most common(普通的) way people in ancient China kept cool was to use fans.Many fans had writings or drawings on them.
Xi'an celebrated the first-ever China Hanfu Day on April 18.There were shows which were held by people wearing traditional Chinese clothing—Hanfu. Hanfu fans from all over China gathered there to take photos and put them online for a Hanfu photo competition, which lasted until May 18.
China Hanfu Day is in the third month of the Chinese lunar calendar(农历), which is said to be the birthday of the Yellow Emperor. In ancient China, this day was also called Shangsi Festival(上巳节). Its purpose is to encourage young Chinese to take pride in traditional clothing.
Hanfu is the traditional clothing of the Han people who lived in China before the Qing Dynasty. It has a history of about 3，000 years. And it has changed greatly so far. However, some of its main characteristics(特点) remain. For example, there are two parts that overlap(交叠) on the front, which is called “jiao ling”.

China is becoming a leading country in the world, so the Chinese people feel more confident about traditional Chinese culture than ever before.
