2005 Chinese New Year Celebrations in Liverpool
      

        

          
The City of Liverpool is one of the most well known cities in the world. It has rich traditions in arts and culture: excellent architectural buildings, vibrant multi-culture and some of the oldest ethnic communities in the UK. As a result, the City of Liverpool was awarded '2008 European Capital of Culture'.In the year of 2000, building engineers from Shanghai came to erect the largest archway outside China to commemorate the twining of the two cities - Liverpool and Shanghai. It has become one of Liverpool's tourist attractions. The archway is a symbol of unity and a catalyst of inward investment. It also helps to promote business, cultural and academic exchange of two cities. 
This year is the Year of the Rooster. For people who were born in this year, they are deep thinkers, capable and talented, and never seem to have problems with money! The Year of the Rooster represents prosperity and fortune. 
Join in the celebrations, enjoy a wonderful meal at one of the finest restaurants or visit the supermarkets listed overleaf. 
Have a happy and prosperous Year of the Rooster! Kung Hei Fat Choi!
