2022 – Year of the Black Water Tiger
According to the Chinese lunar calendar, the Year of the Black Water Tiger is coming. It is believed that he should be passionate and stormy.
However, the water tiger is considered more open and friendly. Therefore, the Chinese do not expect bad events.
How do Chinese people celebrate New Year?
It is difficult to even imagine the importance of this event. In China, many millions of people go to work from the depths of the mainland to the coast. They work without days off and holidays. For almost a year they do not see their family, parents and children. And only on the Chinese New Year can they go to their relatives.
Congratulations
In Cantonese, the main language of southern China and Hong Kong, the New Year’s greeting is “Gong Hei Fat Choi” (恭喜發財), which means “wish you prosperity.” In Chinese, people say “Xin Nian Kuai Le” (新年快乐), which simply means “Happy New Year”.
Some get two weeks off. Some only have a week. But everyone is going home. To see relatives. Therefore, in February, approximately 3 billion trips are made in China by all modes of transport. The average Chinese worker:
- Spends a whole day in line to buy a train ticket before Chinese New Year.
- Pays 100 yuan (about $14) for a one-way train ride.
- Spends 10 hours on the road to get to the family.
