Chinese Lunar New Year celebrated in northern Thailand

The annual Chinese Lunar New Year Festival was held at the Warorot Market (Kad Luang) in Chiang Mai, Thailand on Jan. 29. Chinese, Thais and foreign tourists gathered in Chinatown to watch a dragon dance performance, set off fireworks, and take photos under the red lanterns.

The Chinese New Year is associated with 12 animals with one being assigned each year – due to mythology -along with one of the five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. This year’s Chinese New Year is named “Year of the Wood Snake.”
