New Year's Eve is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. It refers to the evening of the last day of the Lunar New Year, that is, the day before the Spring Festival. Because it often falls on the 30th or 29th of the twelfth lunar month in the summer calendar, it is also called the 30th. The last day of the year is called "New Year's Eve" and that night is called "New Year's Eve". People often stay up all night on New Year's Eve, which is called keeping watch. Su Shi has "Shousui": "Children can't sleep, and they are happy at night."
On New Year's Eve, people should not only clean their homes and outside, but also put up door gods, Spring Festival couplets, New Year pictures and hanging door cages. People put on new clothes with festive colors and patterns.
