A CRI reporter celebrates a traditional Chinese New Year.
My journey began with a coach ride to Fuxin in China's north east Liaoning province where I would be spending Chinese new year. It was a bumpy seven hour journey to our destination, and the cold had left the inside of the coach windows coated in a layer of frost. For all its discomforts, the ride home represents the build up to what is the highlight of the year for many Chinese. Coming home is the chance to see family and friends, eat well, and of course, celebrate the new year.
And in China, that mainly involves three things: eating, visiting relatives and fireworks.
