Spring Festival is coming... Never forget to give surprise to your Chinese Girl.

Everyone knows that he Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people, just like Christmas in the West. In Spring Festival, all people living away from home will go back and all the family members getting together. So we'd like to remind all of our sincere gentlemen, please do not forget this biggest time. It's not just about celebration of Chinese New Year - It's also a chance for wonderful surprise to enable your Chinese girl to share!

Add here, we will share some information about Chinese Spring Festival, which may give you more common topics to talk about with Chinese girls:

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.

The Spring Festival originated from the people's sacrifice to gods and ancestors at the end of an old year and the beginning of a new one. Many customs accompany the Spring Festival and some are still followed today.

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, new clothes and shoes for the children as well as gifts for the elderly, friends and relatives, are all on the list of purchasing.

Besides, for the festival, people completely clean the indoors and outdoors of their homes as well as their clothes, bedclothes and all their utensils, decorate their windows with paper cuts, place New Year's couplets on the frame of their front door, highlighting Chinese calligraphy with black characters on red paper, and pin up New Year's paintings in their living rooms. In all, an atmosphere of rejoicing and festivity features largely.

At last, on the occasion of the Spring Festival, we wish all of our members are Happiness, Health, Peace, Prosperity and Success throughout the new year 2011.
