The Lunar New Year has been celebrated by Asian ethnicities for thousands of years. It is a time steeped in tradition when families gather together to feast and usher in the New Year.

Luxurious silk scarves, sparkling jewelry and exotic food from around the world were just some of the gift ideas on display at the Circle Craft Christmas Market at the Vancouver Convention and Exhibition Centre this weekend.

The stylized clothing of Han Couture, known for its refinement and embedded cultural elements, dates back to the period of Yellow Emperors Yao and Shun around 2000 BC in China.
