In fact, there will be an upcoming 15-day party full of reunions and gathering surrounding these dates. It starts on the first day of the new moon and ends in the full moon on the 15th day. This traditional celebration is the Chinese New Year.
The Chinese New Year or the Lunar New Year is the most celebrated and spectacular amongst Chinese Holidays. It is based on the lunisolar calendar where both moon phases and the solar year's time are indicated. The lunar cycle is usually 29 and half days. China having the biggest population in the world, do not just celebrate this holiday by itself. Even its neighboring countries where its cultures have influenced them celebrate it. These are Korea, Japan, Tibet, Mongolia, Vietnam, and Bhutan. While countries where most Chinese reside also are recognizing the Chinese New Year. These are Philippines, Hong Kong, Macau, Indonesia, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, and Malaysia. But countries like United States, Australia and Canada do not really consider this event as a legal Holiday they still acknowledge it through their China towns and Postal Stamps.
