When is the Spring Festival abroad?

Christmas is not a foreign Spring Festival, but a foreign New Year is 1, which is New Year's Day.

National New Year customs:

1. Italy: carnival night, breaking everything.

Italians pay more attention to the New Year than any other festivals. New Year's Eve is a carnival night for Italians. When night began to fall, people flocked to the streets, set off firecrackers and fireworks, and men and women danced until midnight.

At this time, every household throws the broken bottles, pots, pans, flowerpots and bathtubs out of the window, thinking that this can get rid of troubles and bad luck, to show good luck, to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.

2. France: Drink the last drop of wine.

The French regard the weather on New Year's Day as the New Year's Year: the south wind blows in the new year, the weather is good and everything goes well; When the west wind blows, there is a bumper harvest year for fishing and milking; If the east wind blows, the fruit will be rich; When the north wind blows, it is a poor harvest year. Therefore, people are most concerned about the weather forecast on the first day of New Year's Day.

On New Year's Eve, French people not only drink for fun to welcome the New Year, but also drink the last drop of wine left at home before the arrival of the New Year. It is said that this will usher in a good day for the New Year.
