Couplets, also known as "duizi" in colloquial terms, are elegantly referred to as "yinglian" or "yingtie." They are phrases hung or pasted on walls and pillars. As a unique art form, they use vivid and concise language to depict objective things, express people's thoughts, sentiments, and preferences. For thousands of years, couplets have become a splendid sight in the cultural landscape of the Chinese nation. This book will provide readers with a detailed introduction to this classic traditional culture.
