What is the custom of New Year's Day?

Different countries have different customs.

China: New Year's Day in ancient China is called "Spring Festival" in modern China. New Year's Day in modern China was listed as a legal holiday by the China government and became a national holiday. After a day's rest, we often adjust the weekend before or after that day, and usually have a three-day rest.
