Spring Festival is China's most important popular holiday. In Hong Kong and the Mainland alike, every household stocks up on special purchases and pastes up Spring Festival couplets to welcome the Lunar New Year. No Spring Festival celebration would be complete without family reunions, visiting friends and family, and giving red envelopes containing cash to children.
