Chinesisches Neujahr

📣 Hinweise für Reisende

China's culture, art, and architecture reflect its deep history. Beyond modern centers like Shanghai and Shenzhen, the country features natural sites such as Guilin's karst landscapes and Huangshan's granite peaks.

• Major holidays, including Spring Festival (late January to mid-February) and National Day (October 1st), are observed.
• Significant internal migration occurs during major holidays, potentially making travel challenging.
• Due to the annual migration, planning transportation well in advance during peak holiday periods is advisable.
• The holiday period spans from Chinese New Year's Eve to the Lantern Festival.
• Chinese New Year falls on the new moon between January 21 and February 20.
• Dining is typically communal, with shared family-style dishes. When using chopsticks, avoid specific taboos: never place them upright in food, pass food from one set of chopsticks to another, or point with them. Wait for the most senior person to start eating, and avoid putting food on a plate only to put it back.
