The Spring Festival

The Spring festival, also known as the Chinese New Year, is the most important holiday in China, which bears the same meaning to Chinese people as Christmas to people in the West. The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.
