February 7, 2008 marks the Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year. It is the most important of all the traditional Chinese holidays.
The start of the Chinese New Year is the first day of the New Year containing a new moon. This means that the day varies in each year of the Gregorian calendar. In 2007 the date was 18th of February, and in 2009, it will fall on the 26th of January. The celebrations last for 14 days and ends with the Lantern Festival.
