BEIJING – Hundreds of millions of people across Asia celebrate the Lunar New Year with their families on Wednesday, as they bid farewell to the Year of the Dragon and usher in the Year of the Snake.
A man touches the snake figure at the Baiyun Taoist Temple in Beijing. The Year of the Snake symbolises wisdom and vitality in Chinese culture Lin Yu-soon, 73, said visiting Longshan Temple with his family "gives us a sense of spiritual solace as we pray". "While I'm still young and have the energy, it's the perfect time to take action and make the most of it."During the traditional 40-day period that runs before, during and after the Lunar New Year holidays in mainland China, about nine billion interprovincial passenger trips on all forms of transport are expected to be made.Train and air travel are expected to "hit record highs" during this year's migration, state news agency Xinhua said.
Traffic authorities warned it could take more than seven hours on Tuesday to drive from Seoul to the country's port city of Busan, a journey that typically takes around four hours.
