According to traditional Chinese customs, New Year’s Eve is to keep watch over the New Year, which means staying up late to increase the fortune and longevity of the elders in the family. If you can’t stay up late, you can also choose to turn on all the lights in the house.
New Year’s Eve lights in the house also represent the prosperity of the family, the prosperity of the people and the prosperity of the people. New Year’s Eve lights also have the meaning of lighting the way home for the ancestors.
Last year’s epidemic prevented people from going home for New Year’s Eve, but this year the government lifted the ban on interstate travel, allowing people to go home to their families. Stay safe and follow SOP strictly!
