Spring Festival Couplets
Spring Festival Couplets are traditional Chinese decorations used during the Spring Festival, also known as Chinese New Year. These couplets consist of two lines of poetry written on red paper, often hung on doorways to express good wishes for the coming year. The red color symbolizes happiness and good fortune.
The couplets typically feature themes of prosperity, health, and happiness. They are often paired with a third piece, called a horizontal scroll, placed above the door. Writing and displaying these couplets is a cherished custom that reflects the rich cultural heritage of China and its celebration of the lunar new year.
