5 Good Things to Buy During Lunar New Year 🍊
The Lunar New Year marks the annual celebration of the first new moon of the lunar calendar, which lasts for 15 days ending on the first full moon of the lunar calendar. Most Asian countries, primarily China as well as Vietnam, Singapore, South Korea and Malyasia consider this as their New Year holiday. Families reunite with a bountiful feast of “good luck” foods such as dumplings, fish (whole), round rice cakes and noodles to name a few. And of course let’s not forget, plenty of mandarin oranges and tangerines for good fortune.
2022 is the year of the tiger symbolizing strength, bravery and leadership. The color red is dominant for good luck during Lunar New Year festivities, particularly in China as the color wards off spirits of bad fortune. Just because LNY is a huge yearly celebration in Asian households and businesses, anyone can celebrate the spring festival of the new moon.
