The word YuanDan in Chinese, written as 元旦 (yuán dàn), refers to the first day of the Year in China, pointing to the date January 1st of the solar calendar in most countries of the world. If the year number is added in front of the word Yuandan, such as 2023 元旦 in Chinese, it usually means the date of January 1st of the year, such as January 1st in 2023.

Yuandan is a traditional Chinese festival name, also well known as New Year's Day. But Yuandan is different from China's New Year, the latter of which in China has a world-famous name called "Spring Festival" in English or 春节 (chūn jié) in Chinese. Although both means the first day of the year, Yuandan falls on the first day of the year based on the Solar calendar while the Chinese New Year or Spring Festival refers to the beginning of the year based on the traditional Chinese lunisolar calendar.

The most popular and shortest Yuandan wishes must be the four-character Chinese greeting: 元旦快乐! (yuán dàn kuài lè). And this has almost become the basic formula for Chinese festival greetings like "XX 快乐", just replacing XX with festivals' Chinese names.
But to pay serious attention here, this formula is NOT proper to use for some sorrow festivals, e.g. NOT for "Tomb Sweeping Day" 清明节 (qīng míng jié) in China.

In the end, we wish everybody all the best and smiles throughout the whole year.
Happy New Year's Day! 元旦快乐!!!
