In Chinese culture, red symbolizes celebration, joy, good fortune and auspicious beginnings, making it the most prominent color during the New Year.
Red lanterns, couplets, and envelopes are the most recognizable symbols: lanterns represent reunion and prosperity, couplets express wishes for a successful year, and red envelopes convey blessings and goodwill. Festive foods, tea, wine, and lifestyle gifts—often with red accents—are also popular ways to share New Year wishes.
