Kong He Fat Choi!

Chinese New Year festival is the most important traditional Chinese holiday in China and parts of Asia . The festival begins on the 1st day of the First Chines Month which Called (pinyin).

On the Chinese New Year’s Eve, Chinese families gather for their annual reunion dinner, this is the longest & the most important festivity in the Chinese calendar. On this event people buy presents, decorate their homes, cook lots of food and of course buying a new outfit for this special occasion.

Tonight we are going to our parents' place to celebrate Chinese New Year. It will be a great evening spending quality time with our family. There will be lots of delicious food from the traditional dishes to the new modern dishes . We are looking forward to the evening with lots of fun and happiness.

Let's Celebrate The Year of The Dragon 2012

The revered Dragon is the most iconic of the twelve Chinese Zodiac animals. If you get the chance to visit Asia particularly China you will see that the Dragon appears everywhere, in the temples, villages, cities, homes and even in high rise buildings. We even name ourselves after the Dragon such as Bruce Lee (Little Dragon) and Jacky Chan (Successful Dragon). Even business owners love to use the Dragon in their business names such as Dragon Pearl Chinese restaurant, The Golden Dragon Jeweler and the list goes on and on.

Over thousands of years ago, the Dragon is a legendary animal and is a symbol of an emperor in China. The Dragon motif symbolises protection, strength, power, fortune and fertility. The mighty Dragon is depicted to soar meandering clouds, signifying the promise of never-ending prosperity.

This year we are overseeing the Water Dragon. The manifestation of the water element in this dragon is here to supervise the weather pattern and water for the world. The dragon is watching over all the important water sources and ensuring abundant harvest for the farmers.

So let’s celebrate the year of the dragon and I wish you all success and in good health for the New Year 2012.
