How to display category page in magento

I am using magento 1.5.0.1. On my homepage I want to display categories, I created 3 categories and gave the active option yes in admin. I want to show these categories with a link on my home page. On the homepage I have this code

<reference name="content"> <block type="catalog/product_new" name="home.catalog.product.new" alias="product_new" template="catalog/product/new.phtml" after="product_list"><action method="addPriceBlockType"><type>bundle</type><block>bundle/catalog_product_price</block><template>bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml</template></action></block> </reference>

How to change this to view categories. I am new to magento. Please help me with this ...

I added the "Enable" menu to the "Yes" menu, adding categories.

You can use the built-in widget "Directory link".

  • Open the magento backend application

  • Go to CMS-> Page

  • Select "Homepage"

  • Select the "Content" tab.

  • Click the "Insert widget ..." button

  • Select the "Catalog Category Link" widget from the list of available widgets.

  • Fill the widget with the necessary information and click the "Insert widget" button

  • Repeat step 5-7 for each category that you want to display on the home page.
