How Asian countries celebrate Lunar New Year
From late-January to mid-February, China, South Korea, Vietnam, Mongolia, and many other Asian countries celebrate the Lunar New Year or Spring Festival. The holiday sees the world's largest annual human migration as hundreds of millions of people take a journey back home, bringing the global economy to a halt and causing a crazy traffic load. It is an annual headache for retailers and importers overseas who rely on Asia as all factories shut down. While all countries that celebrate New Year emphasize family reunions, specific celebrations and rituals encompassing the holiday are unique in each nation.
