BANGKOK, Feb 7 (TNA) – This year’s Chinese New Year falls on Saturday, February 10th, leaving time for celebrants to find auspicious home decorations to bring more luck, abundance and prosperity into the house for the upcoming festival.

 

In Bangkok’s Chinatown, items such as Chinese lanterns and blessing banners, known as “Duilian couplets,” are in high demand. With this year being the Year of the Dragon, products related to dragons, especially Chinese dragon ornaments ranging from 3 to 5 meters in length, are selling out quickly.

Traders report that merchandise related to the Chinese New Year is selling well both in physical stores and online platforms. Customers from various provinces have been purchasing goods since the beginning of January. The majority of customers visiting stores currently are from Bangkok.

 

Despite ample preparations, shop owners see insufficient goods for sales some days, particularly on weekends. The influx of customers necessitates additional sales staff.


The atmosphere in Chinatown is bustling, with Thai locals purchasing home decorations, ordering auspicious offerings, and tourists exploring. This aligns with consumer spending behaviors during the Chinese New Year season.
