Feb. 10 is the beginning ofChinese New Year ~ The Year of the Snake.
The oldest and most important festival in China is the Spring Festival, more commonly known in the West as Chinese New Year. The most spectacular event of the Chinese New Year festivities is the Lion Dance. If there is a Chinatown in a city nearby you can visit and watch the “lion” dancing through the streets. Be prepared for lots of firecrackers! Although celebrations of the Chinese New Year may vary, the underlying message is one of peace and happiness for family members and friends.
