I just spent the morning at the Chinese new year celebrations at China Town in Liverpool. The Arch in Liverpool is the largest outside of mainland China and was built in Shanghi.



It was really interesting to see all the local street food sellers, as we dont usually get chinese street food here in Liverpool



I also liked the fact that the council advertised on the rickshaws that were travelling around


and finally here is the "dragon"...does anyone know why people were throwing lettuce at it from their windows?



Did anyone esle get up to anything to celebrate?
