Children show their Chinese couplets and paper-cutting works of Chinese character "Fu" (happiness), which will be sent to old people as gifts to greet the upcoming Spring Festival, in Hangzhou City, capital of east China's Zhejiang province, Jan. 22, 2014. Chinese have the tradition to fix the couplet, which are red scrolls with rhyming phrases, on their doors during the Spring Festival, hoping it can bring in good luck. The Spring Festival falls on Jan. 31 this year. [Xinhua/Ju Huanzong]
