NEW YEAR AROUND THE WORLD

• China and Vietnam: between 21st January and 21st February.
• Indonesia has two New Year celebrations — the official one on January 1st and another on the Islamic New Year (this date varies from year to year).

• The Russian Orthodox Church: on January 14th.

• In Vietnam the new year usually begins in February.

• Iran celebrates New Year's Day on March 21st.

• Each of the religious groups in India has its own date for the beginning of the year. One Hindu New Year, Baisakhi, comes sometime in April or May.
