What's the difference between the south and the north during the Spring Festival?

Speaking of the North-South differences in Chinese New Year, I said something! As the saying goes, "ten miles are different." Because of the differences in climate and diet, the Chinese New Year customs in the north and the south will be slightly different. Let's see what the Chinese New Year custom is and what's the difference between the north and the south.

In the new year, eating is the most important thing for all of us! The most striking difference between the north and the south is that the north eats jiaozi rice cakes made in the south.

In the north, people pay attention to eating jiaozi on the first day of school, which means "alternating the old with the new and making friends when young". Because the shape of jiaozi is quite like an ingot, when it is cooked, the pot is served, which symbolizes the good omen of "making a fortune in the New Year, and the ingot is rolling in".

In the south, most people make rice cakes and glutinous rice balls. The new year cake is homophonic "high year", which means good luck. Tangyuan is also called "jiaozi" and "Tangyuan", which means "family reunion".
