    Chinese New Year, or Chun Jie, which literally means ’spring festival’, is a synonymous term for the Lunar New Year in Chinese culture. The Chinese zodiac follows a twelve year cycle, each of the years being named after an animal. And this is the year of the Rat!

    On Chinese New Year’s eve, many Singaporean families would get together for a reunion dinner with an abundance of delicious food.

    During the season, everyone visits the homes of friends and relatives. Hongbaos – which literally means ‘red packets’, are given to children and adults who are not married.

    • This is the Year of the Rat with two Golden Rats welcoming the New Year.

    Chinese New Year is certainly one of the most celebrated festivals around the world by the Chinese. Without a doubt, the best place to enjoy the atmosphere in Singapore is Chinatown.

    One month before the actual day, shops in Chinatown are already selling related merchandise. These include special food such as Yu Sheng, home decoration materials and clothing.

    You can expect huge crowds here and it gets more crowded towards the eve of the actual day, with people doing last minute shopping. Firecrackers and fireworks will be displayed during the countdown
