Blooming ICH in Chinese New Year

On 4 December 2024, the "Spring Festival, social practices of the Chinese people in celebration of traditional new year" was inscribed onto the UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, highlighting its profound historical and cultural significance.

 

Chinese New Year (Spring Festival) is one of the most significant festivals in Hong Kong. To celebrate this traditional festival, we invite you this January to Sam Tung UK Museum to experience the charm of ICH through the practice of traditional customs associated with the festival.
