Kong Xi Fa Chai 2007

Welcome to the year of PIG!

NBT has a reputation of putting up elaborate and beautiful displays each festive celebration, and this year they have chosen traditional symbols of Chinese culture for their extravagant display.

Every Chinese families can be seen selecting brightly coloured cheongsams to wear during the festivities. The traditional dress is normally made from red silk and embroidered with gold thread, but nowadays, cheongsams can be found in an array of colours including black, blue, orange and gold.

Here are some of the photos taken at NBT.
