The day of February 14th will be unusually well-celebrated this year since the Chinese Lunar New Year falls on this date and it’s Valentine’s Day in Western society. These holidays celebrate different aspects of love—personal and family love.
These holidays have several traditions in common. First, the main color of the day is red. Also food is a major part of the festivities, especially eating out for a special holiday meal. Gifts are also a part of both celebrations—candy and flowers and jewelry as well as red gift envelopes. People buy new clothes to mark the occasion, and decorate homes and businesses, and they have parties.
