In addition to our country, which other country in the world is also celebrating the Spring Festival? Let’s take a look together.
First, North Korea
celebrates the New Year in North Korea, and the country has 3 days off for holidays. The customs of festivals are basically similar to those of our country. After Japan invaded North Korea in 1910, the Spring Festival was abolished. If the food box found that there were sacrificial supplies, they would be severely punished. North Korea only started celebrating the Spring Festival again in 1989, but the celebration was lower than the leader's birthday.
North Korea's New Year is called "the first year", "the new dollar", and "the old official".
The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is to sacrifice my ancestors first. The practice of worshiping ancestors is also very particular. The food placed on the altar requires fish to be placed in the east, meat to be placed in the west, red food to be placed in the east, white food to be placed in the west, rice to be placed on the left, and soup to be placed on the right.
The entire sacrificial procedure is also very strict. After the ancestor worship is over, the children must kowtow to the elders and wish the new year, and the adults must also say some blessing words to the children.
Men, women, young and old wear bright ethnic costumes, put on lanterns, sing and dancing together, eat eight treasure rice , draw gyroscopes, kick shuttlecock , it’s so lively.
The second one, Vietnam
Qin Shihuang After unifying the six kingdoms, three counties were established in the south, and northern Vietnam was part of it. It experienced many years of separation and reunion in the middle, but the customs were always similar, until Ming Dynasty Jiajing Emperor gave the country name "Vietnam".
Vietnam New Year is the same day as us. The holiday starts from New Year's Eve and goes all the way to the third year of the Chinese New Year. There are 4 days off in total. If it is Saturday and Sunday, it will automatically post until 6 days. They will also post Spring Festival couplets. At first glance, their Spring Festival couplets look a bit like children's scribble. Nowadays, there are not many people who can write Spring Festival couplets. There is a local profession called "Tuweng", which specializes in writing Chinese characters and Spring Festival couplets. Local young people can only write some calligraphy Spring Festival couplets in Roman pinyin. In 1945, Vietnam abolished Chinese characters, and Spring Festival couplets gradually became Roman characters.
During the Spring Festival, Vietnamese people will eat fatty meat and make rice dumplings.

Singapore also carried out a major cleaning before the New Year. It cannot be cleaned on the first and second day of the New Year, and is worried about sweeping out all your fortune.
Singapore has a unique recipe called "fishing". Whether it is a group dinner or a reunion dinner at home, a group of people gathered next to the table, stood up straight, and used chopsticks to catch fishing, and kept saying "fishing, fishing, fishing, fishing, fishing." This cold dish is made of vegetables and sashimi . This dish basically means greater than the ingredients themselves, and it is higher and higher, and it is higher and higher.
The fourth one, Malaysia
