In Beijing, many are visiting traditional fairs held in parks, as well as Buddhist and Taoist temples offering singing and dance performances and open-air markets selling handicrafts.
Monday marks the first day of the Year of the Monkey — the ninth animal on the Chinese zodiac calendar.
The week-long holiday, known as the Spring Festival in China, is focused on family reunion and is a time when students and migrant workers return to their hometowns.
It is the country's most important holiday, equivalent to Christmas for many in the West.
