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.
