How China Celebrates New Year's Day

How does China celebrate New Year's Day? Since New Year's Day was born during the Republic of China period and evolved from the Spring Festival, when China began to celebrate New Year's Day, most of its customs were similar to the Spring Festival, or could be said to be a smaller version of the Spring Festival. After all, New Year's Day is not a traditional Chinese festival, although some traditional celebration methods are adopted: such as setting off firecrackers, killing three lives, worshiping ghosts and gods, and sacrificing ancestors, but in people's minds, it does not occupy an important position. In modern times, the customs of celebrating New Year's Day have become simpler.

New Year's Day Celebration Method One: The whole China and even the world know that many countries regard New Year's Day as a legal holiday and take a day off on New Year's Day. After the founding of New China, New Year's Day was also stipulated as a statutory holiday with one day off.

New Year's Day Celebration Method Two: Nowadays, the more common ones are activities organized by groups, such as New Year's Day parties, hanging up slogans for celebrating New Year's Day, or holding group activities, etc. There used to be organizations that played gongs and drums and danced ethnic dances collectively. Now they can still be seen on TV documentaries. With the development of science and technology today, it has evolved into a gala evening. In recent years, there are also programs such as traveling and gathering. Anyway, there are not too many traditions on New Year's Day. On this day, it is up to people to decide how to spend their holidays. Even for the younger generation, New Year's Day only means a day off.

New Year's Day Celebration Method Three: The celebration method that retains the traditional Chinese way is in the folk, especially in the countryside. Every New Year's Day, every household will set off firecrackers and kill chickens and geese. After worshiping various gods, the family will gather for a meal. As for more solemn celebration methods, I haven't seen them yet.

What to give as a gift on New Year's Day:

Sea willow cigarette holder

Sea willow is an ancient marine organism that grows deep in the ocean and has a strong adsorption effect on harmful substances in cigarettes. Smoking with a sea willow pipe or cigarette holder can moisten the lungs, clear the accumulated heat in the lungs, reduce the harm of smoking to the body to the maximum extent, and play a role in astringency and sterilization. It is a high-end gift for personal use, elders, leaders, colleagues, and friends.

Drinkers live longer

Drinking tea for a long time can prolong life. Because tea contains tea polyphenols and other elements needed by the human body, which are beneficial to health. The design of the pot integrates the image of the God of Longevity, which is not only a perfect interpretation of the longevity of drinking tea, but also expresses the beautiful wish of giving healthy tea gifts and wishing longevity and peace.
