Instead of buying lanterns, follow our craft expert's how-to instructions for making crepe paper lanterns and baby food jar lanterns. Insert and secure electric candles or tea lights into the lanterns, hang them up in the yard or the house, and then watch them glow. By Sherry Huang January 28, The legend behind this annual tradition has several iterations, but one of the most widely known is the story of a young girl working in the Chinese emperor's palace. As the legend goes, Yuanxiao worked as a maid. Despite her opulent lifestyle, she missed her family and desired only to be home during Chinese New Year. As a ploy to sneak out, she told the emperor that the God of Fire had visited her and told her that he planned to burn down the city. The emperor took the threat seriously and had the entire court and city put up colored lanterns and light firecrackers to mimic a great fire. The palace was so busy with the preparations that Yuanxiao was able to sneak home. These days, Yuanxiao is the name of the dumplings people eat during this holiday. If you've never experienced a Lantern Festival in China, then you might be imagining a bunch of red paper lanterns hanging from strings along storefronts and houses. In reality, this is far from the actual illuminations that appear in cities and towns around the country. In Shanghai, for instance, lanterns are themed around the animal that corresponds with the Chinese Zodiac for that particular year. Some lanterns take the form of hanging shapes — from flowers to fish — between the eaves of buildings. Enormous, illuminated displays decorate the plazas and courtyards within the Yuyuan Bazaar outside of the Yu Garden. A large zodiac animal in one of the courtyards is a regular highlight. Along the pathways in front of Shanghai's Huxinting teahouse, there are beautifully illuminated dragons curling around each pole and displays portraying different historical and cultural stories in the water below. Every city celebrates with different decorations, traditions, and themes. 26 Dazzling Chinese New Year Photos From Celebrations Around The World It's tradition to eat candies and candied fruit to sweeten the New Year.

  • The Educator's Guide
    Resources A Guide for Secondary School Educators The Educator’s Guide Created in conjunction with the exhibition, SINGAPO人: Discovering Chinese Singaporean Culture Discovering Chinese Singaporean Culture This exhibition examines how the Chinese community in Singapore developed its own distinctive culture. Here, visitors discover and rediscover what it means to be a Chinese Singaporean. The aim is to develop a stronger sense of the Chinese Singaporean identity amongst youths. This will help foster a greater sense of belonging while giving them an understanding of how we are similar to or different from other Chinese communities. This exhibition presents Chinese Singaporean culture through daily life in Singapore – through the things we see, hear, do and eat every day. Therefore, the experience is highly interactive where visitors can touch various stations, play games, listen to stories and have a dialogue with the gallery. Through this exhibition, we will explore ideas of: Chinese heritage Cultural interactions Public policies The exhibition content extends classroom learning and teaching, by complementing History, Social Studies and Character & Citizenship Education subjects taught in secondary schools. It is also self-guided, where students can learn and explore independently. One of the main interactive features of the exhibition is the use of wristband tags. Students can tap their wristband tags to answer questions scattered throughout the space, trigger videos and play games. At the end of the visit, students can print out their own personalised report card which summarises their exhibition journey along with prompts for further cultural exploration beyond the exhibition. This report card serves as a starting point for them to reflect about their identity in relation to everyday life.

  • Defining Self: Performing Chinese Identity Through Dance in Belfast
    eSharp Issue 24: Belonging and Inclusion Defining Self: Performing Chinese Identity through Dance in Belfast Wanting Wu (Queen's University Belfast) Abstract This paper takes an auto-ethnographic approach to questions of belonging and inclusion through anthropological analysis of my own experience as a Chinese dancer in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The Chinese community in Belfast has been well established since the 1970s, retaining a distinctive identity within a city dominated by ‘British’ and ‘Irish’ ethnici- ties. Dance plays a significant role in communal ceremonies and festivals as a symbol and enactment of Chinese identity. As a Beijing trained Chinese dancer who came to Belfast as a postgraduate student, I found myself playing a significant role in the expression of Chinese identity within the city, and having emotional experiences when dancing which were differ- ent to those I had experienced in China. These experiences led me to reflect upon the sources of my own identity as a Chinese person. Through a detailed auto-ethnographic account of my dance experience as a Beijing trained dancer performing in the context of a multi-cultural city far removed from China, I explore the ways that dance may form and transform embodied identities and redefine prac- tices and selves in interaction with different environments and audiences. The article will uti- lise theorisations of “flow,” “authenticity” and “habitus” to understand the emergence of identity in embodied action. The article concludes that the perceived ‘Chineseness’ of my dance performance, and my own experience of myself as a ‘Chinese’ dancer, are rooted in ways of being that have been embodied through extensive socialisation and training from an early age.

  • Chinese New Year
    Chinese New Year Kung Hei Fat Choy That’s ‘Happy New Year’ in Chinese. Hi. We are going to tell you all about the Chinese New Year. One in every six people in the world celebrate Chinese New Year. Customs vary but the main idea is to remember family and wish everyone peace and prosperity in the coming year. Chinese New Year is also known as the Spring Festival. It is the biggest and most important festival in China and is celebrated in Chinese communities all over the world. The date of Chinese New Year is based on the lunar calendar and the date changes each year. The first day of the New Year falls between 21st January and 20th February. Celebrations last for 15 days from Chinese New Year’s Eve to the Lantern Festival. There are several legends about how the Chinese New Year came about. One legend is that Lord Buddha called together all the animals in the animal kingdom to say goodbye before he left Earth. Only twelve came. He rewarded them by naming a year after each one in the order they arrived. Another legend tells the story of a swimming race. Many years ago there was a rat, an ox, a tiger, a rabbit, a dragon, a snake, a horse, a goat, a monkey, a rooster, a dog and a pig. The animals argued about who was to be first in the cycle of years. They asked the Gods to decide. No I should ! I should be first. But I’m the most important! The Gods decided that there should be a swimming race.

  • Phenomenex Celebrates First Chinese Translated Product Catalog
    Phenomenex Celebrates First Chinese Translated Product Catalog Since going direct in China in 2017, our team has worked tirelessly to bring the full Phenomenex experience to customers. Our latest accomplishment is our first fully translated product catalog in Chinese that is beginning to land with our customers in China. We are exceptionally excited to share this as it took a whole village of people to accomplish. From bilingual talent, editors, reviewers, and corporate reviewers, this has been a very exciting time for team China at Phenomenex. We wanted to celebrate this exciting time, so Phenomenex had a full afternoon filled with traditional Chinese treats and snacks, Chinese acrobats, and an authentic Chinese Lion Dance. The art of the lion dance is somewhat of a mystery of how long the tradition has been in China—or even where it came from. There weren’t many lions in ancient China, so the tradition may have been introduced from India or Persia earlier on. However, the lion dances are popular traditions during Chinese New Year, with the iconic beating of drums and crash of cymbals. The dance is meant to bring good fortune and prosperity to a business or neighborhood for the coming year. The Chinese lion dance isn’t just for viewing, but you can also participate! You must wait until the lion comes over, bats its large eyes, then you can feed a small donation in a red envelope into the lion’s giant mouth. The red envelopes are known as hong bao in Mandarin and symbolizes good luck and prosperity.
