Lunar Chinese New Year falls on the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar every year. As the most important festival of the year, grand celebrations are witnessed in China with traditions passed down over the centuries: from family reunions to New Year fireworks, from dumplings to local delicacy feasts.

Now the 400-year-old festival is going global, as it also represents values honored by different civilizations, no matter if it's family cohesion, harmony between humans and nature, or world peace.
