Chinese and Vietnamese communities welcome auspicious Year of the Dragon
The parade in San Francisco's Chinatown took ages for that long dragon to past by . A lot of people tried to get pregnant in the dragon's year, and this year is going to be on January 23, a especial thing is also the food.The Chinese people have a lot of food traditions ,one of those is server oranges or tangerines, because the color represents happiness, the whole fish , represent the beginning and the end, but the main food symbol of Tet, the Vietnamese celebration, is "banh chung'', represent heaven and Earth and takes days to prepare.Happy New Year classmates!!
