There is no better place to celebrate the Lunar New Year than Las Vegas. The Entertainment Capital of the World boasts lavish decorations and bright illuminations all over the city and each hotel works hard to impress its visitors with beautiful decorations symbolizing the animal of the coming year – the Rabbit.

Knowing that it’s going to be a spectacular event in Las Vegas we decided to book three nights in Bellagio and celebrate the Lunar New Year there. Why Bellagio? It is famous as one of the best hotels with the most beautiful luxury decorations in Las Vegas. And we were right. Everywhere in the hotel we saw the images of the Rabbit, and a number of Chinese symbols.

Of course, I couldn’t ignore such a rare find and bought it with pleasure.

Inside the Sugarfina mini trunk there is a bunch of candy cubes with candy of different shapes and flavors. In addition to all time favorites like gummy bears (Pomegranate Bears and Pink Citrus Ginger Bears are included in this holiday trunk) you will also find flavors associated with Lunar New Year and Chinese culture specifically.

No New Year celebration is complete without mandarins and peach blossoms that traditionally symbolize China. It’s the peach blossom that appears first after severe winter and means rebirth and the beginning of the new year. It is the ancient symbol of luck and long life.
