Bangor -
The year of the snake begins this weekend, and Oriental Jade Restaurant in Bangor has a big celebration planned for the Chinese New Year.
It starts on Sunday and continues for the rest of the week.
One feature the restaurant is excited about is a travelling photography exhibit. Photos from China: Exploring the Interior will be on display. Those photos date back to 1903-1904.
Co-owner Lilian Lo said, "I started putting it up this week and everyone's so fascinated with what they can check out. Besides that, it's new year's and we wanted to celebrate the new year in a very different way this year."
Lo said this will be the biggest Chinese New Year celebration Bangor has ever seen.
