Chinese New Year Celebration in Xi'an China What's the Spring Festival like in China's oldest city? Xi'an China: I arrived in the oldest city in China to celebrate Chinese New Year here, which is also known as the spring festival or Lunar New Year. I am joined by my friends and we are super curious to witness and experience the Chinese New Year celebrations here in China. It's out first time being in China during the Chinese New Years period, so we were not sure what to expect! Join us on New Years Eve here in Xi'an, China, a city full with history and friendly people. Do you celebrate Chinese New Year? If yes, what did you do? And which name do you prefer? Lunar New Years, Spring festival or Chinese New Year?
