[quote=AMANDA ,3685]It should be the best chance for you to know Chinese folkway, and feel the typical traditional festival. This is THE biggest holiday in China, and people usually get five days to ten days off from work. This is a holiday for family reunion, and people spend a lot of time at home and visit close friends exchanging gifts. As a result of this, hotels, transportation and tourist places usually have the least occupancy of the year (although trains are usually full in the days just before this holiday), while restaurants and shopping places on the other hand, usually have the largest crowd of the year.Traditional food for the Spring Festival includes rice cakes (fairly traditional to this holiday, but readily available throughout the year though), sticky rice flour dumplings (not easily found in other season, but more traditionally eaten in a holiday 15 days later), and many others.[/quote]
