What kind of festival is New Year"s Day? Is it unique to China?
New Year"s Day refers to the Lunar New Year in ancient times, which is what we now call the Spring Festival.Today"s New Year"s Day is not a traditional festival unique to China, but a New Year"s Day in the Gregorian calendar.On January 1 of the Gregorian calendar every year, other countries will also celebrate it.
Before the Republic of my country, our country adopted the way of the lunar calendar; after the Republic of my country, our country adopted the way of the Gregorian calendar.On the other hand, New Year"s Day means the day at the beginning of the year, in which Yuan means the beginning and Dan means the day.Therefore, in ancient times before the Republic of China, New Year"s Day refers to the first day of the Lunar New Year, which is the current Spring Festival; after the Republic of China, New Year"s Day is worth the Gregorian New Year, which is January 1 of the Gregorian calendar every year.This is not a traditional festival unique to China.It"s a holiday in most countries.
