"White moon"-Tsagaan sar is the Mongolian lunisolar New Year festival. The White Moon holiday is celebrated two months after the first new moon following the winter solstice. In 2009, White Moon fell on February 25, and in 2010, it will be on February 14. Tsagaan Sar is one of the most important Mongolian holidays
We celebrate it by visiting friends and familes on this day exchange gifts.A typical Mongolian family will meet in the home dwelling of the eldest in the family.
Many people will be dressed in full garment of national Mongolian costumes. When greeting their elders during the White Moon festival, Mongolians grasp them by their elbows to show support for them. The eldest receives greetings from each member of the family except for his/her spouse.During the greeting ceremony, family members hold long pieces of colored cloth called Khadag.After the ceremony, the extended family eats rice with curds, dairy products and buuz and drinks Airag, and exchanges gifts.
