The Spring Festival of China is as important as western countries'
Christmas. So they are indeed some similarities But because of
differences in culture and may aspects, there are some differences as
well.
They are similar in some ways. Firstly, on both festivals,
families usually get together and have a good time at home. They often
have feasts happily with the family. And they wish everyone happy.
Secondly, shops, stores and supermarkets all like this period. They make
big money before and during the festivals.
However, there are also
different. Chinese parents give money to their children on the Eve,
hoping they will do better and be healthier nxet year, while western
people choose to give chilren some unexpected presents secretly. Of
couse, the decoration are different. We can see Christmas trees in
western homes while we can enjoy "chunlian" in China. Also, in China,
people visit a lot of people during the festival while westerners often
choose to stay with their families only.
But anyway, during the festivals, people are all in a good mood and relax themselves.
