Spring Festival couplets hang on a city wall dating to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) in Nanjing City, the capital of East China’s Jiangsu Province, Jan. 25, 2016. The couplets are 15 meters long and have been put on the 650-year-old city wall for the first time. In China, couplets, an important part of decorations for the Lunar New Year, are usually pasted on each side of a door to convey people's wishes for the coming year.
