On the evening of December 31, hundreds of thousands of people gathered at the neon-lit "Crossroads of the World", waiting for the crystal ball hanging on the top of the Times Building, symbolizing the "Big Apple", to slowly descend with the countdown. When the New Year's bell rings, the lights in the crystal ball will be turned off, and replaced by shining numbers of the new year illuminating the entire Times Square. At that time, people will hug those around them tightly and wish each other "Happy New Year!" --U.K When midnight arrives, the British begin their traditional New Year greetings. Every family would open the door and take out the small black bread prepared earlier to entertain the guests. The first visitor is usually considered a symbol of luck for the new year. If he/she is a happy, prosperous and wealthy person, it indicates good luck for the owner throughout the year. --Germany Germans attach great importance to the New Year. They believe that how well they spend the New Year is directly related to their luck in the next year. On New Year’s Eve, people will set off fireworks to “suppress evil spirits” and bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. There is a German saying that goes "A hearty New Year's Eve dinner, fish and meat meals all year round", so the Germans' New Year's Eve dinner is always unusually hearty. Before the New Year's bell rings, many Germans will climb onto a chair, and when the bell rings, they will jump down and run behind the chair to show that they are getting rid of disasters. --France The French will start drinking and having fun in the house from 12 o'clock in the evening on New Year's Eve to welcome the New Year. Whoever can drink up all the wine in the bottle will have the best luck this year. --Canada Canadians have always regarded pure snow as a symbol of good luck. When the New Year comes, people sweep the snow from the roadsides or yards around their homes and build a snow wall. They believe that this can prevent the invasion of evil spirits and bring happiness to the new year. --Italy On New Year's Day, every household in Italy will light a stove fire and keep it burning all day long. Because Italians believe that fire comes from the sun, if the fire is extinguished on New Year's Day, there will be no sunlight in the coming year. In addition, Italians will throw unwanted things in the house into the yard or even into the wild on New Year's Eve. It is said that this will bring happiness to the family in the new year. ——Romania When celebrating the New Year, Romanian farmers try to listen to what their domestic animals say. If they can understand what the animals are saying, they will have good luck in the new year. In addition, Romania has the custom of Bear dances during the New Year. Bear dances symbolize keeping evil at bay. Romanians will wear furry uniforms and bear heads and dance in various houses. |
