Hey guys, I intend to go do Chinese New year in Chinatown. How to do it right? There appears to be two festivals, a firecracker and cultural festival on Feb 8th and a parade on Feb 14th.
Has anybody ever gone to one of their festivals? Is one better than the other? Advice for a first timer? Travel advice, vendor advice, anything you can offer. I'm not Chinese but can speak a little. Will there be restaurants open? Best spots to visit? I intend to travel from eastern Pennsylvania.
