China's traditional festivals have evolved through the centuries from past major events.
• Long ago when people had a bountiful harvest, they gathered and celebrated their good fortune with gala performances.
• When natural disasters struck, they offered sacrifices to the gods and their ancestors, hoping for a blessing.
• The change of the seasons, flowers in spring, and the bright moon in autumn could all arouse their longing for a more beautiful life.
• Thus, creative activities were held to signify these events. Gradually these activities developed into festivals.

• New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are celebrated as a family affair, a time of reunion and thanksgiving. The celebration was traditionally highlighted with a religious ceremony given in honor of Heaven and Earth, the gods of the household and the family ancestors.
