CGTN published this video item, entitled “Jiangsu water town greets ‘God of Wealth’ with ancient rituals” – below is their description.

This day is also traditionally marked as a day to “Po Wu” or “break the fifth,” implying many taboos can be broken on this day.

Colorful boats symbolizing wealth sailed into the new year slowly, with hosts greeting and wishing spectators a prosperous year.
