| This Chinese character means Spring, but pasted upside down, which indicates that spring has arrived! |
 |
| This character reads "fu", which means blessings and also upside down. |
 |
| Doors are decorated in red with words and couplets for the New Year! |
 |
| And a must during the Chinese New Year celebrations,,,,, Firecrackers! much, so much of them even in the middle of the night! During the Chinese New Year, red is very important: people wear red clothes, write poems and couplets on red papers, give children "lucky money" in red envelopes. Red means fire-- it burns off bad luck! Firecrackers can drive out the evil spirits! That's how the Chinese spend the Chinese New Year! |
