Usually, we give our houses a thorough cleaning and decorate them with red couplets and beautifully-designed paper-cuttings before the festival. Gathering for the annual reunion dinner and watching the Spring Festival Gala on the Eve of the New Year is a meaningful moment for us Chinese. During the festival, we visit the elder and relatives to give our greetings and best wishes.
When you are here, I want to invite you to make dumplings, watch beautiful fireworks and dragon dance with us. If time permits, I’ll show you around our city. I hope you’ll have a happy traditional Chinese New Year here. What do you think about it? Best wishes, Li Hua
