Spring Festival Market Delights Await!

During Chinese New Year, visiting the Spring Festival market and savouring festive snacks is a cherished tradition for most Chinese people.

During this year’s Spring Festival, bustling holiday markets are filled with excitement, offering a dazzling array of delicacies. From traditional snacks to speciality pastries, the rich aromas fill the air, enticing visitors to stop, taste, and indulge in these festive treats.

Moreover, the Spring Festival market in many places has rich and colourful formats, with traditional New Year customs, intangible cultural heritage handicrafts, trendy brands, special food, and interactive performances, allowing citizens and tourists to experience the Chinese New Year.

For example, in Fuzhou’s Sanfang Qixiang Historical and Cultural District, tourists can purchase cultural and creative souvenirs inspired by intangible cultural heritage, such as themed stickers and refrigerator magnets. Meanwhile, children can enjoy intricate sugar paintings crafted by robots—both visually stunning and delightfully tasty.
