Year Of The Rabbit | January 24, 2023
The year of the rabbit has begun. This Tuesday, we're explaining the annual Chinese Lunar New Year festival that brings about the largest migration of people. We'll look at how long the event lasts, how it's celebrated, and what color is associated with luck and prosperity. We'll then travel to a World Heritage Site that is currently shutdown due to travel disruptions brought on by anti-government protests. And finally, we'll feature a story about a social media post that may have saved the day for one local restaurant.
