KISSIMMEE, Fla. - eMusicWire -- It's that time of year again: the Lunar New Year (https://www.centralfloridalifestyle.com/orlando...) is upon us! The Lunar New Year is an important traditional holiday celebrated by many Asian cultures, including China, Japan, and Korea. This holiday marks the start of a new year and is celebrated on different dates according to the lunar calendar, which is based on the phases of the moon.

Popular Activities

One of the most popular activities during the Lunar New Year is the giving of red envelopes.
