Limited edition souvenir bus tickets have gone on sale in Beijing.

They are to mark the Chinese traditional "Xiao Nian" festival, which falls on the 23rd of the twelfth month of the lunar year, and are being sold by Beijing Public Transportation Group.

As 2016 marks the Year of the Monkey, according to the Chinese zodiac, the special edition souvenir tickets are themed with monkeys and the lunar New Year.

Each souvenir ticket costs 2 yuan. Passengers pay in cash, as the tickets are only available on buses with buses conductors.

'Happy Chinese New Year' is a worldwide activity for celebrating the traditional Chinese Spring Festival. In its seventh year, over 2,100 cultural activities will be held in over 400 cities across more than 140 countries and regions worldwide.
