Description
Chinese New Year is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. In China, it is known as "Spring Festival," the literal translation of the Chinese name 春節 (Pinyin: Chūn Jié), since the spring season in Chinese calendar starts with lichun, the first solar term in a Chinese calendar year. It marks the end of the winter season, analogous to the Western carnival. The festival begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: Zhēng Yuè) in the traditional Chinese calendar and ends with Lantern Festival which is on the 15th day. Chinese New Year's Eve, a day where Chinese families gather for their annual reunion dinner, is known as Chú Xī (除夕) or "Eve of the Passing Year." Because the Chinese calendar is lunisolar, the Chinese New Year is often referred to as the "Lunar New Year".

I'll be taking a short break for the next 1-2 weeks, so here's a photo I took during a visit to the Thean Hou temple in Kuala Lumpur.
新年快乐!

I always wonder that how did the ancient chinese people make this with JUST ONLY clay? It must take A LOT of time making the details!
It was really beautiful, usually I don't notice those, though there is a temple near my school.
And happy new year to you!
