Unlike the rest of the world, the\nChinese celebrate the new year according to their lunar calendar, so there is\nno specific date for this celebration. However, there is some data that makes\nthis a tradition without equal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that the Chinese New Year produces\nthe largest migratory movement in the world per year? That&#8217;s right, the Chinese\ntravel to their hometowns to reunite with their families and thus spend this\ntraditional festival together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, another of the Chinese customs\nthat are widely known in the rest of the world is the great importance of the\ndragon in its symbolism. The Chinese are the children of the dragon, a powerful\ncreature that is associated with its emperors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_food_Chinese_customs_that_will_seem_strange_to_you\"><\/span><strong>The food, Chinese\ncustoms that will seem strange to you<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the gastronomic field, you can find a lot of things that will surprise you. Customs and traditions of totally different cultures make a clash of what could be known as normal or exotic. Street food is one of the references that mark the cultures of the countries, a hot dog in the streets of New York, a delicious <a aria-label=\"arepa  (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Arepa\" target=\"_blank\">arepa<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/ca\/america\/south-america\/colombia\">Colombia <\/a>or Venezuela, and so with every corner of the world. But in China this is going to seem a bit strange, here you can get insects, yes, insects! Scorpions, crickets, cicadas, which one would you like to try?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you want to continue surprising yourself\nwith Chinese food? Surely you have heard that dogs are eaten in China and you\ntry not to believe it. But we have to tell you that you must open your mind a little\nmore so that you understand that there it can be very normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did not you like that about dogs? It&#8217;s just a different culture. However, there are many Chinese customs regarding food that may, although seem strange, do not seem unpleasant. An example of this is hot breakfasts and water. Maybe you&#8217;re used to having a juice, fresh fruit or something very natural. The Chinese usually eat hot food, which, by the way, is not bad at all. Tea, for example, is one of their passions and that is why drinking hot water is very normal for them. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.net\/blog\/chinese-tea-ceremony\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">What is the Chinese tea ceremony and what does it consist?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Knowing_these_Chinese_customs_will_ensure_you_not_to_be_rude\"><\/span><strong>Knowing these Chinese\ncustoms will ensure you not to be rude<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Disregarding the culture and traditions of a\ncountry like China could make you not receive very kindly or feel that you are\nbeing rude. Therefore, you must take into account certain actions that you\nshould not do in the Asian country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not leave the chopsticks stuck in rice, this\ncould be very rude, it means you want the death of the person who has served\nyou food. You do not want to do this, do you? Similarly, when you are in a\nrestaurant or hotel, do NOT tip, it could also be considered rude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing you should avoid is pointing.\nLittle by little you get to know gestures that will feel indecent for your\nChinese friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_information_about_the_behavior_of_the_Chinese\"><\/span><strong>Other information\nabout the behavior of the Chinese.<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These are some customs that might be of\ninterest to you about the Chinese people:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>They usually take a bath at night; they prefer it rather than taking a refreshing bath in the mornings.<\/li><li>They spit on the ground, although the authorities have banned it and try to eliminate it, it is a difficult habit to eradicate.<\/li><li>They have naps at work, there are usually times inside the offices or factories for employees to have a nap.<\/li><li>Love table tennis, it is very easy to find spaces for the practice of this sport in public places. People of all ages practice it daily.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Surely, you&#8217;ve heard that in China only families are allowed to have a child. Well, this is no longer the case, now the second child is allowed. This was a measure that was taken to reduce the incredible increase in the population.
