About the Spring Festival

The Spring Festival is the most important traditional festival in China. It usually falls in January or February. During this time, families gather together to celebrate. People clean their homes to sweep away bad luck and decorate with red couplets and paper cuts for good fortune. On New Year's Eve, they enjoy a big family dinner and watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV. Children receive red envelopes filled with money as blessings. Fireworks light up the sky, adding joy to the celebrations. The Spring Festival is a time of reunion, happiness, and hope for the new year.
