The custom of celebrating the Spring Festival in China

Make new year's goods. China's annual custom culture has a long history, and various Chinese New Year customs originate from all parts of the country, with great differences between the north and the south, each with its own characteristics. Although customs vary from place to place, it is almost a "must-have" for Chinese New Year to prepare new year's goods and send new year's gifts all over the country.

Set off firecrackers. There is a folk saying in China that "there are firecrackers when you open the door". That is to say, when the new year comes, the first thing for every household to open the door is to set off firecrackers to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.

Zhao Tiancan, also known as "burning silkworm" and "burning field wealth", is a popular folk custom in Jiangnan area to pray for the New Year. On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, a long pole tied with a torch will stand in the field, indicating the new year with the flame, and the thriving flame indicates the bumper harvest in the coming year.
