It says until further notice. So unlikely to be Lunar New Year since it just ended today.

CNY goes for two weeks and just started last Tuesday night. The golden week holiday however just ended. Most people take extra time off so things are usually slow until the whole holiday is over.
In HK it's just a few days...
It is still two weeks, just the official days you get off from work are only a week or a few days.

In 2008 when they burned down the CCTV cultural center with fireworks on the last day of CNY, we were already pretty much back to work in Beijing.

My Chinese wife says it goes on another week despite what Google calendar says (also it's not called Lunar New Year evidently)
UPs refers to it as “Lunar New Year holidays” on the website I linked, probably because it’s more than just China. You’re right though, I should have been more clear.
