The venues of the Chinese New Year in Moscow festival, which is held as part of the Winter in Moscow project, come alive to the sounds of traditional music, the aromas of oriental treats and the bright colours of festive decorations. The spirit of the Celestial Empire reigns there: the festival gives the opportunity to be transported to the noisy streets of Beijing or a cozy corner of Shanghai. The festive programme takes place on the main squares of the city. Souvenirs and unforgettable impressions await Muscovites and guests of the capital.

Tea ceremonies and fabulous treats

On Tverskaya Square you can find rare varieties of tea: pu’er, tieguanyin, longjing. There is a “Tea Workshop” site where guests can learn about the culture of Chinese tea drinking and also buy exquisite tableware for ceremonies.

Those with a sweet tooth will definitely appreciate Chinese desserts – mochi, mooncakes, “White Rabbit” and dried fruits. The culmination of the tasting will be fortune cookies.

In souvenir shops you can find terracotta warriors, elegant porcelain vases, fans with double-sided embroidery and even interior items in traditional Chinese style.

Souvenirs and entertainment for the whole family

At the festival, guests will be able to try their hand at the Chinese games of xiangqi, mahjong and go. These board games are captivating in their complexity and philosophy. For those who want to touch art, Tverskaya Square offers goods for Chinese painting: ink, rice paper, brushes.

Guests can expect souvenirs such as feng shui-style jewelry, interior items made of silk, copper and jade, bookmarks, ceramic plates and much more.

Chinese New Year is not only a holiday, but also a real extravaganza of tastes, colors and emotions. Everyone will be able to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of Eastern culture and take a piece of the Celestial Empire with them. More details you can find out by following the link.

From January 28 to February 9, a large-scale celebration of the New Year according to the Eastern calendar is taking place in Moscow for the second time. It has become a continuation of the events that were organized within the framework of the cross-cultural Years of Russia and China announced by the leaders of the two countries, timed to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations. Russian and Chinese artists perform at nine central venues in Moscow, thematic quizzes and prize draws are held, master classes and lectures are organized, and guests can try exquisite dishes of Eastern cuisine. The central streets of the city are decorated in traditional Chinese style. A colorful program has been prepared for the guests of the festival, which will last 13 days.

Project “Winter in Moscow” — the main event of the season, which until February 28 brings together various events in the capital. Citizens and tourists are invited to remember traditions and history, warm up with tea and hot buns, go ice skating, watch ice shows, give gifts to people who find themselves in a difficult life situation, and show concern for those who need it.

Muscovites and guests of the capital are offered a huge selection of events in the open air and in cultural and sports institutions. The atmosphere of winter traditions has engulfed the entire city – more than 1.9 thousand sites are open. The largest festivals of the capital are organically woven into the project: “Moscow Estates”, “Moscow Tea Party”, “City of Light” and many others.
