Fun Facts:
🧧 Red symbolizes joy, virtue, and sincerity which is why it is often the predominant color in many Chinese celebrations.
🧨  In the New Year Celebration, fireworks and firecrackers have a symbolic function as they are used to scare evil spirits.
8️⃣ The number 8 is considered the luckiest of numbers in China - the more 8’s the better. The Cantonese word for eight, which is pronounced “ba,” sounds similar to the word which means “prosper” or “wealth.”
