Over 200 primary school students visited the Liangyuan district people’s court in Shangqiu, Central China’s Henan province, on Feb 3.

The local education bureau and court co-hosted a mock court activity to remind students of the risk of setting off firecrackers during the winter holidays and the up-coming Spring Festival.

Chinese New Year, or Spring Festival, is China’s most important traditional festival, with a history of more than 4,000 years.

As it falls on Feb 16 this year, grand celebrations will take place all over the country -- from family reunions to New Year fireworks and temple fairs and performances to dumplings and feasts of local delicacies.

After the mock court activity, judges also held a Q&A session to help students learn more about laws and regulations.
