The Lunar New Year

Every year as the Lunar New Year season draws by, China Town in Singapore would be buzzed with all kinds of activities. One prominent character would be: You will see RED all over the place. There will be red lanterns, red ribbons, red scroll, red packets, red dresses, and all kinds of deco items in Red. This is because Chinese believe that red would bring prosperity and good luck, at the same time it chases away the evil spirits.

The following photographs were taken with my handphone, while I was at China Town last week. The crowd was already building up, but the purchasing power was not as strong as last year!
