About New Year’s Day: The origin of New Year’s Day
p>In modern times, New Year's Day refers to the first day of the year. Since the introduction of the Western calendar into our country, the term New Year's Day has been exclusively used for the New Year, while the traditional Old Calendar year is called the Spring Festival.
Before that, New Year’s Day always referred to the first day of the lunar calendar. Yuan means "beginning" and "beginning", and Dan refers to "days". New Year's Day collectively refers to the "initial days", which is the first day of the year.
On September 27, 1949, the First Plenary Session of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference resolved: "The Chinese People's Republic of China adopts the AD chronological calendar", which is what we call the Gregorian calendar. To distinguish between the two new years of the lunar calendar and the solar calendar, and because the "beginning of spring" in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar happens to be before and after the lunar new year, the first day of the first lunar month is renamed the "Spring Festival", and the first day of the first lunar month is designated as "New Year's Day" , So far, New Year's Day has become a happy holiday for people across the country.
Celebrating the beginning of the New Year and celebrating New Year's Day can be said to be a common custom in various countries and regions around the world. In our country, it is also included as a national holiday. Our country and most countries and regions in the world adopt the Gregorian calendar system and designate January 1st as the beginning of the new year, called "New Year's Day".
Since countries around the world are located at different longitudes and have different times, the date of "New Year's Day" is also different. For example, Tonga, an island country in Oceania, is located on the west side of the date line. It is the first place in the world to start the day and is also the first country to celebrate New Year's Day. Western Samoa, located east of the date line, is the latest place in the world to start a new day. According to the Gregorian calendar, our country is the 12th country in the world to start the New Year.
