Ruisen sunglasses– Lunar New Year’s Eve dinner

The New Year's Eve dinner is a central focus for the extended family time together– this time of year is the most important moment for Chinese people. It’s important for the whole family to celebrate together. People will travel a long way to be with their family at this time. Often celebrations are held at the home of the elder of the family, such as the parents or grandparents, or the elder siblings.

For us, Lunar New Year is the most important time of the year.I have very fond memories of all gathering around to watch the CCTV new year’s Gala, eating lots of delicious food and then five minutes before 12am until about quarter past, we set off our own fireworks as a family. You can hear the sounds of the crackers everywhere and still smell the smoke in the next morning. I love those moments.
