The Spring Festival Golden Week holiday, also known as the Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year, is celebrated in China and among Chinese communities worldwide. This significant cultural event occurs between January 15 and January 21 and culminates with the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the New Year. The festival is characterized by activities aimed at bringing luck and ensuring a prosperous new year. Traditional customs include cleaning homes to sweep away bad luck from the previous year and preparing for better fortune. Celebrations also involve family gatherings, ancestor worship, and honoring important deities. A popular folktale associated with the festival tells of a beast named ‘Nian,’ which is warded off by the use of red decorations and firecrackers, leading to the tradition of wearing red during the celebrations.
