Chinese New Year in Wan Chai – Celebrating New Beginnings

The dawn of the traditional New Year falls on the second new moon after the winter solstice and it is one of the most colourful celebrations in the world. The Chinese calendar is in accordance with the lunar system and therefore the New Year falls at different seasons every year. Guests who were residing at hotels in Kowloon Hong Kong the likes of Dorsett Mongkok Hong Kong had the opportunity to witness some of the most glamorous performances such as the traditional lion dance.

The highlight of the New Year celebrations is the festivities that take place along the streets. For tourists, this is a favourite and provides a much sought out insight into the Chinese culture. The best part is every celebration displayed on the streets is attributed to one Chinese legend or the other.
