The Chinese New Year is a time when families come together to celebrate and welcome the incoming year.It is usually celebrated in January or February, depending on the lunar calendar.The festival is filled with vibrant colors, delicious food, and exciting activities.
One of the most important customs of the Chinese New Year is the giving of red envelopes, also known as 'hongbao.' These envelopes are filled with money and given to children and unmarried adults as a symbol of good luck and prosperity.It is always exciting to receive these envelopes, as they bring good fortune for the coming year.
Another interesting tradition is the cleaning of the house before the New Year.It is believed that by cleaning the house, you are also sweeping away any bad luck from the previous year.Decorations such as red lanterns, couplets, and paper cuttings are hung up to add to the festive atmosphere.

and festive scene.
Food is also an important part of the Chinese New Year.Delicious dishes such as dumplings, fish, and sweet rice are prepared and enjoyed by families.These foods symbolize different meanings, such as wealth and abundance.
