Washington Chinese New Year Celebrations On Capitol Hill
The Washington Chinese community marked the New Year with red envelopes and good luck slips delivered to residents from Chinatown. Men, women, and children dressed in colorful attire filled the streets while homes, doors, and restaurants displayed red decorations. A girl in purple velvet walked with an American friend as both spoke in English, bridging cultures. Chinese residents prepared to visit the Chinese Minister as the New Year began on Washington time rather than Beijing time.
