The Lunar New Year is also the most important holiday in China because it is a time for families to reconnect and celebrate the arrival of spring. The Lunar New Year will begin on the first day of the first lunar month and will run until January 15th.

The night of December 30 in the lunar calendar is known as New Year's Eve or Union member's night. At this time, family members will meet to savor traditional cuisines and discuss old-year memories, and adults will celebrate the birth of children. The New Year's Eve supper has a vital value in Chinese culture, showing the pleasure of each family. And of course, it is indispensable for entertainment activities such as lion dance, fireworks, boat racing, stilt rides, and yang ca dance - a Chinese folk dance.
