　　The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people and is when all family members get together， just like Christmas in the West。 All people living away from home go back， becoming the busiest time for transportation systems of about half a month from the Spring Festival。 Airports， railway stations and long—distance bus stations are crowded with home returnees。

　　Strictly speaking， the Spring Festival starts every year in the early days of the 12th lunar month and will last till the mid 1st lunar month of the next year。 Of them， the most important days are Spring Festival Eve and the first three days。 The Chinese government now stipulates people have seven days off for the Chinese Lunar New Year。

　　Many customs accompany the Spring Festival。

　　Some are still followed today， but others have weakened。

　　On the 8th day of the 12th lunar month， many families make laba porridge， a delicious kind of porridge made with glutinous rice， millet， seeds of Job's tears， jujube berries， lotus seeds， beans， longan and gingko。

　　The 23rd day of the 12th lunar month is called Preliminary Eve。 At this time， people offer sacrifice to the kitchen god。 Now however， most families make delicious food to enjoy themselves。

　　After the Preliminary Eve， people begin preparing for the coming New Year。 This is called "Seeing the New Year in"。

　　Store owners are busy then as everybody goes out to purchase necessities for the New Year。 Materials not only include edible oil， rice， flour， chicken， duck， fish and meat， but also fruit， candies and kinds of nuts。 What's more， various decorations， new clothes and shoes for the children as well as gifts for the elderly， friends and relatives， are all on the list of purchasing。

　　Before the New Year comes， the people completely clean the indoors and outdoors of their homes as well as their clothes， bedclothes and all their utensils。

　　Then people begin decorating their clean rooms featuring an atmosphere of rejoicing and festivity。 All the door panels will be pasted with Spring Festival couplets， highlighting Chinese calligraphy with black characters on red paper。 The content varies from house owners' wishes for a bright future to good luck for the New Year。 Also， pictures of the god of doors and wealth will be posted on front doors to ward off evil spirits and welcome peace and abundance。

　　The Chinese character "fu" （meaning blessing or happiness） is a must。 The character put on paper can be pasted normally or upside down， for in Chinese the "reversed fu" is homophonic with "fu comes"， both being pronounced as "fudaole。" What's more， two big red lanterns can be raised on both sides of the front door。 Red paper—cuttings can be seen on window glass and brightly colored New Year paintings with auspicious meanings may be put on the wall。

　　People attach great importance to Spring Festival Eve。 At that time， all family members eat dinner together。 The meal is more luxurious than usual。 Dishes such as chicken， fish and bean curd cannot be excluded， for in Chinese， their pronunciations， respectively "ji"， "yu" and "doufu，" mean auspiciousness， abundance and richness。 After the dinner， the whole family will sit together， chatting and watching TV。 In recent years， the Spring Festival party broadcast on China Central Television Station （CCTV） is essential entertainment for the Chinese both at home and abroad。 According to custom， each family will stay up to see the New Year in。

　　Chinese New Year

　　Chinese New Year starts with the New Moon on the first day of the new year and ends on the full moon 15 days later。 The 15th day of the new year is called the Lantern Festival， which is celebrated at night with lantern displays and children carrying lanterns in a parade。

　　The Chinese calendar is based on a combination of lunar and solar movements。 The lunar cycle is about 29。5 days。 In order to "catch up" with the solar calendar the Chinese an extra month once every few years （seven years out of a 19—yearcycle）。 This is the same as adding an extra day on leap year。 This is why， according to the solar calendar， the Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year。

　　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。

　　The sacrifice to the ancestors， the most vital of all the rituals， united the living members with those who had passed away。 Departed relatives are remembered with great respect because they were responsible for laying the foundations for the fortune and glory of the family。

　　The presence of the ancestors is acknowledged on New Year's Eve with a dinner arranged for them at the family banquet table。 The spirits of the ancestors， together with the living， celebrate the onset of the New Year as one great community。 The communal feast called "surrounding the stove" or weilu。 It symbolizes family unity and honors the past and present generations。
