If you plan a Beijing tour during the Chinese new year, you would have an opportunity to see how Chinese people spend their new year. Chinese new year or Spring Festival gives Chinese people a week-long holiday, this year from Jan 22, the new year’s eve to Jan 29, 2012. This Chinese new year is coming so early with its new year’s first day falling on Jan 23, 2012, only a week away!
Actually I’m not mentally prepared for the approaching spring festival till tonight when I change the route of my routine stroll after dinner and wander slowly down to the commercial New Century Shopping Center, not far from my Donghuashi Nanling Community, about half hours’s walk.
There I have felt or even touched the coming spring festival. Department stores ane small stalls are swarmed with holiday shoppers, buying new year food, new year gifts, new clothes, new home appliances etc.
The New Century Shopping Mall is beautifully lit and festooned with red lanterns, signs of dragons and festive pendant
Beautiful new year pendants
