Google Arts & Culture Helps the World Understand CNY Better

In conjunction with the lunar new year, Google Arts & Culture brings us a new online exhibition to help people around the world learn more about this centuries-old tradition.

Google Arts & Culture teamed up with 12 museums from Beijing to Washington so everyone can discover the craftsmanship and arts that make this holiday so colourful. Follow the zodiac animals across 1,000 years of art history, learn about the art of the New Year prints with which people decorate their homes, or find out how to give and accept an ang pao.

The exhibition is available for everyone online and through the Google Arts & Culture mobile app on iOS and Android. And if you follow them on Instagram, you can join the celebrations and learn how to create lanterns or fold a pretty paper rooster to celebrate Lunar New Year.
