KHMER NEW YEAR is one of the major celebrations in Cambodian culture. It is based on the lunar calendar, and is celebrated in mid-April. In San Jose Bay Area, the same ceremonies and activities are planned for and participated in. Even thousands of miles away from the land they were born in, Cambodians continue to honor and preserve their cultural heritage by sharing it with their children and new friends.
