Today I know the origin of New Year’s Day
New Year’s Day is the first day of the year. The name "New Year's Day" is said to come from Zhuan Xu, one of the legendary Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. He takes the first month of the lunar calendar as the Yuan and the first day as the Dan. "Yuan" means first and beginning, and "Dan" means a red sun rising from the ground. The combination of "Yuan" and "Dan" means that people will welcome the new year with vigor. On this day, cities and rural areas across our country are decorated with lights and colorful decorations and put on festive attire. Many units hang up huge slogans saying "Celebrate New Year's Day" to celebrate the New Year.
