With the Chinese Lunar New Year, or Spring Festival, just around the corner, Chinese people are starting to purchase food and accessories for their biggest celebration after a year of hard work.

Four years after People's Daily Online reporter Zhao Tong and Alvaro Lago visited a New Year's market in Beijing, they decided to make another visit to see if any new items are appearing in the market this year.

Starting in 2024, the Chinese Lunar New Year, or Spring Festival, has been officially listed as a U.N. floating holiday in its calendar of conferences and meetings. As well as being an annual celebration for Chinese people, the Spring Festival also belongs to the world.
