Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival or Lunar New Year, is the most important traditional holiday in the Chinese calendar. It marks the beginning of the Lunar New Year, which is when there is the start of a new moon.
Special foods are prepared during Chinese New Year, each with its own symbolic meaning. For example, fish symbolises the abundance and prosperity, while dumplings represent wealth. The act of sharing meals with family and friends is an important part of the celebration.
