In Russia and China, the new year is being welcomed with lights, vibrant colors, and shared hopes for a peaceful and tranquil world

These days, Moscow is more dazzling than ever as festive decorations light up the Russian capital in celebration of the new year

The highlight of the Arbat pedestrian street this year is a series of giant tangerine displays

Tangerines are traditionally seen as a symbol of the new year in Russia

One attraction drawing particular attention is a special scale placed on a street allowing visitors to see how many tangerines their body weight would equal

I wish that everyone loved each other, that the world became kinder

and that not only the war we are experiencing ends, but that words never begin anywhere, so that people can truly be happy

In China, the new year atmosphere is also spreading across cities and streets nationwide

In Xian and Nanjing, red lanterns and auspicious knots have been hung along ancient city walls

In Beijing and Kunming, flowers symbolizing good fortune, such as orchids and kalanchoe, are among the most popular items for decorating homes

I love flowers very much So I bought many orchids and kalanchoe

They bring joy and really create a festive atmosphere

Beyond preserving tradition, Chinese cities are lighting up the night sky with modern light shows and drone performances

The blend of traditional culture and modern technology is creating a colorful and hopeful picture as China welcomes the new year 2026
