Chinese New Year

The most important holiday in Taiwan is the lunar New Year. It is a long holiday in Januery or February. During this time, people who live away from home return to be with relatives and friends. On Chinese New Year's Eve, family sit around the table, eat a feast and talk to each other.
It's a merry time for children, because they can eat candy and cake and set off firecrackers. As red is a propitious color to the Chinese, adults put money in red envelopes. They give red envelopes to all of their children and hope that everything will be wonderful for them in the coming year.
Traditionally, Chinese are going to have a family reunion. Everyone visits relatives and friends and exchanges best wishes with them.
