Do Westerners spend the Chinese holiday?

Foreigners also put up Spring Festival couplets, eat dumplings and watch the Chinese Spring Festival Gala with their families when they spend the Chinese New Year holiday. Chinese New Year is one of the most important festivals in our country, and it is also a time for everyone to be together with their families. The Spring Festival is also a legal holiday in our country. Although the young people in our country like to celebrate the holiday very much, they can only take a vacation on legal holidays, like many foreign holidays are not allowed to take a vacation. Therefore, many older people will say that young people nowadays worship foreign countries and pander to foreigners, all pursuing foreign festivals, and do not care about their own country's traditional festivals. But in fact, our country's status in the international arena is increasing, many foreigners also celebrate the Chinese New Year. There are also a lot of foreigners in China who follow the customs of their home country and celebrate Chinese New Year with the Chinese people. In fact, foreigners are also very excited about Chinese New Year, and they also prepare a lot of food at home. Because most Americans are very fond of getting together, they definitely want to join in when they see all the Chinese people celebrating the festival with gusto. And Americans in the Chinese New Year is very like the dragon and lion dance, although now in the country has banned firecrackers, but in the United States can firecrackers, a lot of Americans will be in the country on New Year's firecrackers. The British also attach great importance to the Chinese New Year, and during the New Year these Britons will also organize themselves to go to the local Chinese homes and pay their respects to these Chinese people. And these foreigners also learn the Chinese habit of buying New Year's goods. The Germans' favorite Chinese New Year's goods are Chinese greeting cards, which they buy a lot of and give to each other among their friends on New Year's Day. So don't say that Chinese young people are pandering to foreigners, the culture itself is common, and our country is now very influential in the international arena. While foreign traditional culture is influencing our generation of young people, our Chinese traditional culture is also influencing foreigners.
