Moscow recently marked the Lunar New Year with vibrant celebrations featuring panda-themed events, cultural performances and festive displays highlighting Chinese traditions.
About Lunar New Year:
It marks the beginning of a new year in the lunisolar calendar, which was developed in ancient China.
Often known in the West as Chinese New Year, the Lunar New Year occurs on the first new moon of the lunar calendar.
Lunar calendars consist of 12 months,each month corresponding roughly to one cycle of the moon.
Because 12 lunar cycles do not fill a whole year an extra month is added periodically to Lunar calendars to stay close to the solar year.
Since the lunar calendar is based on the cycles of the moon, the date of Lunar New Year is different each year.
