Origin 1. 1 New Year's Day

On September 27th, A.D. 1949, the first plenary session of China People's Political Consultative Conference decided to establish the People's Republic of China (PRC), and at the same time, it also decided to adopt the universal method of the A.D. calendar and officially designated the Gregorian calendar 1 as "New Year's Day".

"Yuan", the beginning of each number is called "Yuan", which means the beginning and the first; "Dan" is a hieroglyph. The "sun" above represents the sun, and the "one" below represents the horizon, that is, the sun rises from Ran Ran on the horizon, symbolizing the beginning of a day. New Year's Day is also called "three yuan", that is, year yuan, month yuan and hour yuan.

China's New Year's Day is said to have started in Zhuan Xu, one of the three emperors and five emperors, with a history of more than 3,000 years. The word "New Year's Day" first appeared in the Book of Jin: "It is actually the spring of New Year's Day when the emperor was transferred to the first month." In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Xiao Ziyun's poem "Elegance in the Southern Dynasties" also recorded "New Year's Day in four seasons, long life in early spring".
