If you go there, you will undoubtedly discover a location with karaoke. One of the most common ways for Chinese people to socialize is through this activity. Many of China’s major cities have karaoke rooms, often known as “KTVs” or “karaoke homes.” If you are unfamiliar with a KTV, picture a western movie theater; it will appear very similar. If you get the chance to visit, you’ll find a soundproofed space with distorted speakers, microphones, a television, a huge central table, and couches lining the walls. Of course, singing is a given. Others can have a buffet dinner or roll dice at the table while you amuse the crowd; both activities are included in the entry fee.

Chinese holidays

Being a student gives you the fortunate opportunity to visit China for a longer period of time and perhaps take advantage of a holiday. Numerous brief holidays are observed, including Labor Day, the Dragon Boat Festival, and Mid-Autumn Day. You should find out whether there are any local holidays in the region or town where you are staying. The significant holiday times are, however:

Chinese New Year

It happens in January or February. On the evening of China New Year’s Day, it is customary for Chinese families to get together, have a reunion supper, and distribute cash in red envelopes. Additionally, windows and doors are embellished with red paper-cuts and couplets, as can be seen everywhere. Additionally, firecrackers are lit late at night.

Qingming Festival

Up to three days in April are dedicated to this festival. To convey vitality to the deceased and amuse them at the same time, customs include sweeping gravestones and dancing on them.

National Day

The majority of people take a week off for the National Day, which is on October 1st. On the other hand, kids and some teachers have four to six weeks off. Shop closures are to be anticipated for a while. Therefore, make sure to stock up on groceries in advance.

You can either spend your free time at home during the major holiday periods (Chinese New Year, National Holiday), or if you’re feeling particularly adventurous, you can purchase a ticket for a bus, train, or airplane and travel to some of the sights or visit one of the megacities like Shanghai or Beijing. If this is the case, you should take care not to be alarmed by the crowds of people because, during the holiday season, virtually everyone in China is returning home to see their loved ones.

Places to visit
