Spring festival blessings are being collected by Shenzhen Metro Co. Ltd. from Jan. 27 to Feb. 12 in Shijiezhichuang (Window of the World), Gangxia, Kexueguan (Science Museum), and Dajuyuan (Grand Theater) stations.

Nearly 30 pieces of red Shaanxi-style paper cuts covering 10 square meters have been put up at the four stations for people to write on. Passengers can write their New Year wishes or blessings for friends and family members freely on the paper.

"Happy New Year; have a good trip; wish all of my friends happy and healthy," are the most common blessings appearing at the stations. Some lovers draw hearts on the paper, while some children draw candies.

Passengers like to stop to read and write blessings. "I enjoy expressing wishes in this way, for it is really special, I hope my friends can see my wishes when they pass by the board," said Wang Xugang, a Metro passenger.

According to the Metro company, the best blessings will be published on the company's Web site after Feb. 12, this year's Lantern Festival.
