January 25, 2020 officially marks the year of the White Metal Rat

Chinese New Year is traditionally celebrated for 16 days. On holidays in the cities of China, festivities are held with vivid traditional performances and performances.

The color of the Chinese New Year is always red, due to the ancient legend of the monster named Nyan. On the eve of the holiday, the monster came out of the water and pounced on people and cattle, so everyone was hiding in their homes. Once an old man came to the village and asked for an overnight stay in exchange for protection from the monster. When the residents agreed, he marked the houses with red paint, lit candles in every house and launched fireworks. The monster, as legend has it, was frightened of red and loud sounds and left people alone, and candles, fireworks and an abundance of red became permanent attributes of the Chinese New Year.

The Chinese believe that as you celebrate the New Year, you will spend it, so they try to settle disputes before this holiday, forget grievances, pay off debts, not take loans and wish everyone peace and good luck.

Chinese and Vietnamese students studying at the Faculty of International Education are also preparing for the meeting of the White Metal Rat Year.
