Lunar

New Year
The Lunar New Year, also known as the Chinese New Year
or Spring Festival, is a significant traditional festival
celebrated in many East Asian countries, including China,
Vietnam, Korea, and others. It marks the end of winter and
the beginning of spring, symbolizing new beginnings,
family reunions, and the hope for good fortune in the
coming year.

exchange, fostering connections among people from
