When Love Meets The Lunar Year

Submitted by Cmate on February 14, 2010 – 20:44One Comment

Who would have thought that Valentine’s Day would one day share the same date as the first day of Chinese New Year, or any other holidays for that matter. 14th of February has always been reserved for romantic escapades, couple romance, candlelight dinners and celebration of true love. This year, it’s a double celebration for the Chinese. It’s a celebration of prosperity, fortune, luck and loads of love.
