In China, it prompts the world\u2019s largest annual migration. Hundreds of millions of people brave jammed roads, train stations and airports, many making the exodus from major cities to their hometowns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Lunar New Year traditions vary across and within countries, but similar threads run throughout: family time, rituals for prosperity and to honor ancestors, and marathon feasts. Many flock to temples to place offerings of traditional food, and light incense at altars for ancestors and elders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In China, children receive red envelopes as blessings from their relatives. In Southeast Asia, dragon dances, believed to bring good luck, prosperity and rain, are held in the streets \u2014 and sometimes underwater.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\"
