What are the customs and traditions in Wanzhou?

If you have money but no money, you will shave your head during the New Year and jiaozi will pack coins.

It means a new year, shaving off old hair, getting rid of old customs and welcoming the new year. Traditional customs consider it unlucky to shave your head in the first month. If you don't shave your head years ago, you can only wait until February 2. Therefore, before the Chinese New Year, no matter men, women and children, no matter whether they have money or not, they should shave their heads anyway to make a good sign for the coming year.

Eating glutinous rice balls during the Spring Festival is one of the important customs of the Spring Festival. Most Wanzhou families must eat glutinous rice balls at the first breakfast on the first day of the New Year's Day, which symbolizes reunion. Some families wrap a coin in glutinous rice balls, which means that whoever eats jiaozi wrapped in coins will have good luck all year round.

Reunion dinner, also known as New Year's Eve, is a reunion dinner eaten on New Year's Eve, and it is the most lively and enjoyable time for every household in the Spring Festival.

In addition to family reunion during the Spring Festival, ancestor worship and grave sweeping are also essential activities. Wanzhou people have the custom of Spring Festival. It is more important to go to the grave on New Year's Day than Tomb-Sweeping Day.
