Chinese New Year is the most important festival of the year in China and many Asian countries. Like most of the other Chinese festivals, the date of this festival is determined by the lunar calendar. The 2008 Chinese New Year begins on February 7, 2008 and lasts until Feb. 21, 2008, the fifteen of the first Lunar month (also called Lantern Festival).
The eve of the Chinese New Year is when the whole family gathers together. Northern Virginia has large Asian communities. No matter where we are from, our hearts are together with our families, particularly during the Chinese New Year.
