Top 10 Chinese Holidays Calendar for the Year of the Dog (2006)\nGuide Picks\n\nFrom Rhonda Parkinson,\nYour Guide to Chinese Cuisine.\nFREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now!\n\nChinese New Year may be China’s biggest excuse for a party, but it’s not the only one. There are many Chinese holidays throughout the year, and most have their own special celebration food. Because Chinese holidays are based on the lunar calendar, the date on the Gregorian calendar changes from one year to the next. Here is a calendar with dates and information about the major Chinese holidays and significant days in 2006, the Year of the Dog. \n1) Chinese New Year – January 29, 2006\nFor millions of Asians, Chinese New Year is more than one special day. Families spend weeks preparing for the big event – cleaning house, painting doors and windows red, and cooking special foods. Celebrations for Chinese New Year, also called the Spring Festival, last a full fifteen days. Learn more about Chinese New Year, the symbolic significance of festive foods, and try New Years recipes. (Date of Chinese New Year Day: first day of the first Chinese lunar month).\n2) Lantern Festival – February 12, 2006\nCan’t wait until Valentine’s Day to celebrate with your sweetheart? The Lantern Festival, marking the last day of the Chinese New Year season, is traditionally a day for lovers. Learn more and try a recipe for Yuanxiao, the sticky rice dumplings that are served at Lantern festival celebrations. (Date: fifteenth day of the first Chinese lunar month).\n3) Kuan Yin's Birthday - March 17, 2006 (March 18th in China)\nWhile the Irish are paying homage to St. Patrick, Buddhists will be celebrating the birthday of the Goddess of Mercy. Learn more about Buddhism's most universally beloved deity and celebrate the day with classic Irish and Asian recipes. (Date: nineteenth day of the second Chinese lunar month).\n4) Ching Ming – the Tomb Sweeping Festival - April 5, 2006\nA gravesite picnic? Why not? The Tomb Sweeping festival is a time for families to honor the memory of their ancestors. Along with “tomb sweeping” – performing standard gravesite maintenance such as removing debris from the gravestones and replacing dead flowers - family members offer gifts of food, fruit and wine to the departed. After a formal ceremony, the food is shared among family members. Another tradition is to burn incense to ward off any evil spirits that may be lurking.\n5) Cheng Chau Bun Festival – May 5, 2006\nEvery year, Hong Kong's tiny island of Cheng Chau holds a celebration honoring Pak Tai, the God of the Sea. The highlight of the three day festival involves a spectacular midnight race up steel towers that have been loaded with Chinese buns. (Date: the eighth day of the fourth lunar month).\n6) Dragon Boat Festival – May 31, 2006\nThere are few sites more spectacular than a fleet of painted dragon boats racing toward the finish line, with a drummer in each boat hammering out the rhythm for the rowers to follow. The Dragon Boat Festival is China’s oldest festival. Find out more about this exciting event and learn how to make Zongzi, the sticky rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves that are an essential feature of any Dragon Boat Festival celebration. (Date: fifth day of the fifth Chinese lunar month).\n7) Chinese Valentine’s Day – July 30, 2006 (July 31 in China)\nThey may not celebrate with chocolate and flowers, but the Chinese have a day devoted to love. Learn more about the legend of star-crossed lovers Niu Lang and Zhi Nu, and try several romantic menus to celebrate the holiday. (Date: seventh day of the seventh Chinese lunar month).\n8) Hungry Ghost Festival - August 8, 2006\nEven ghosts deserve time off. According to Chinese legend, every year ghosts are allowed to leave hell and return to earth for one month. Learn more in this feature by Greg Cruey, About's Guide to Asia for Visitors. (Date: fifteen day of the seventh Chinese lunar month).\n9)

I think it's June 6th, 2006.  Nothing more.  Kinda like Jan. 1, 2000 was.  Our dates and any number associated with them are pretty much arbitrary.
