Family is at the center of Chinese culture, traditions, food and celebrations. For example, Spring Festival, also known as Chinese New Year, brings extended families together to decorate their homes, enjoy time away from school and eat family favorite foods, said two BYU–Hawaii sophomores from China.
They said spending time with family during holidays is a highlight of life in China. Kefei Yu, a communications major, and Fei Liu, an accounting major, shared as a nation, they love Spring Festival traditions, like the dragon dances and exchanges of red envelopes for good luck and prosperity.
