This year, the organizing panel will issue unlimited paper seals, in the hope that they will bring the New Year’s good fortune and prosperity for recipients, for six days to meet the demand of visitors.
In addition, various activities are taking place, including lion dances, classical opera performance, martial art performances and chess competitions.
The panel plans to welcome about 60,000 visitors during the festival.
