Happy New Year of the Dragon. 龙年快乐!(Lóng nián kuàile!)Chinese New Year of the Dragon

The Dragon is magnificent. In China, the Dragon is the imperial symbol, the sign of the emperor and the male element of Yang. The Dragon is also synonymous with power and wealth.

The Dragon falls on the following years: 1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, and 2012.



At Chinese New Year, just saying Happy New Year to your Chinese friends is not enough, you should share the following good wishes:

新年快乐!(Xīnnián kuàilè!) Happy New Year!

过年好!(Guò nián hǎo!) Happy New Year!

恭喜发财!(Gōngxǐ fācái!) I wish You Great Prosperity!
