The Spring Festival is the most important festival for our Chinese. This year, the lunar New Year’s Eve is on 31 January. On that day we will put up spring couplets to decorate our house. There will be a New Year’s Eve dinner at home at about 6 pm that day and we will watch the Spring Festival Gala together. Later that night we can also set off fireworks. Sounds great, right I’m sure you’ll like it.
