New Year's Eve has special significance in the hearts of Chinese people. It is the most important day at the end of the year. No matter how far away a wanderer is, he will rush home to reunite with his family, bid farewell to the old year with the sound of firecrackers and welcome the new year with fireworks in the sky. The last day of the year is called "Suichu" and the night is called "New Year's Eve". It is connected with the beginning and end of the New Year, which is called "the end of the year and the month, and the year is approaching". It is the eve of the new year and an important time junction for getting rid of the old and welcoming the new.

Every household is busy cleaning the house, getting rid of the old and bringing in the new, hanging up lanterns and decorations, welcoming ancestors home to celebrate the New Year, and offering them rice cakes, three kinds of meat, three kinds of tea and five kinds of wine. Since ancient times, there have been customs on New Year's Eve such as ancestor worship, staying up all night, family reunion dinner, pasting red New Year gifts, and hanging lanterns. These customs have been passed down to this day and have continued for a long time. Influenced by Chinese culture, New Year's Eve is also a traditional festival in countries in the Chinese character cultural circle and overseas Chinese around the world. In 2007, New Year's Eve officially became a legal holiday in China in accordance with the "National Holidays and Memorial Days Regulations." In 2014, New Year's Eve was adjusted in accordance with the State Council's decision to amend the "National Holidays and Memorial Days Regulations" and is no longer a legal holiday in China. What is the origin of New Year’s Eve?It is said that in ancient times, our ancestors were threatened by a most ferocious beast. This ferocious beast was called "Nian". It hunted animals for food. In winter, when food was scarce in the mountains, it would break into villages and hunt people and livestock, making the people in constant fear. People have been fighting against "Nian" for many years, and they found that Nian is afraid of three things: the color red, fire, and loud noises. So in winter people would hang red peach wood boards on their doors, burn fires at the doorsteps, and stay up all night banging and hammering on the doors. That night, "Nian" broke into the village, saw red and fire in every house, and heard deafening noises. It was so scared that it ran back into the mountains and never dared to come out again. As the night passed, people congratulated each other, hung up lights and decorations, drank and feasted to celebrate the victory.To commemorate this victory, every winter at this time, every household would paste red paper couplets on the door, light electric lanterns, beat gongs and drums, and set off firecrackers and fireworks; at night, they would stay up all night; and the next day, they would congratulate each other early in the morning. This tradition has been passed down from generation to generation and has become the "Chinese New Year".
