During Chinese New Year (CNY), the street markets of Sheung Wan transform from their usual "old-meets-new" charm into a high-energy hub of tradition, as locals flock to the area to prepare for the year's most important festival. About a week before the New Year, several calligraphers set up temporary stalls in Sheung Wan. You can witness them hand-writing Fai Chun (lucky red scrolls), which are hung to dry along walls and railings throughout the streets.
