The day is an official holiday in Hong Kong, Macau and South Korea. Many traditions are observed from wearing pure white, consuming milk, porridge or a beverage made from hydrangea and ...some avoid food that is non-vegetarian. Flowers are also used when decorating Buddha statues and adorning temples and streets with Lotus lanterns. Celebrate your Friday at Chinatown Markets Sydney on Dixon Street from 4pm-11pm.

16.01.2022 The legend of Dragon's Beard Candy was first notably practiced during the Chinese Han Dynasty. An imperial court chef entertained the Emperor one day by performing steps involved in making a new confection. The process of making the candy involved stretching a dough-like mixture composed from rice flour into small, thin strands. These strands reminded the Emperor of a dragon's beard, and were sticky enough to adhere to one's face quite easily, so thus the concoction was there...-forth named as Dragon's Beard Candy. The name may also be attributed to the status of the mythical dragon as a symbol of the Chinese Emperor, so presenting the confection as Dragon's Beard Candy was deemed acceptable due to the social nature of the candy, as it was reserved only for the ruling class, likely due additionally to the complexity of the preparation process. Luckily, you don't have to be the Emperor to taste the great Dragon's Beard Candy. Come to Chinatown market every Friday night and explore the ancient heritage of China, Search Dragon Beard Candy Australia () for their Facebook page and see you Friday

15.01.2022 At Chinatown Markets Sydney we love how our community shows its personality-particularly during market time every Friday evening from 4pm-11pm on Dixon Street. Reflection on culture can also be a statement of style. Fashion is sometimes best when expressed without too much thought-just be who you are! The blog Accidental Chinese Hipsters is a true tribute to the thought that the best dressed are unintended trend icons. Check it out at: http://accidentalchinesehipsters.tumblr.com
