As a custom, couplets are an important part of the traditional culture of the Han nationality. Couplets, commonly known as "spring posts", "door pairs", "spring couplets" and "couples", are derived from ancient peach symbols and are a unique literary form in China. It depicts the background of the times and expresses people's good wishes with neat, dual, concise and exquisite words. It is a national custom and culture that has been inherited for a long time in China. In 2005, the State Council of China listed the custom of couplets in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists.
Couplets have a wide range of applications, includingSpring couplets, industry couplets, wedding couplets, longevity couplets, elegiac couplets, advertising couplets, scenic spot couplets, celebration couplets, bedroom couplets, etc. Among them, Spring Festival couplets are a more widely used variety of couplets . "Thousands of households always replace old talismans with new peaches" ("Yuan Ri" by Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty). A poem vividly records one of the most important Spring Festival customs during the Northern Song Dynasty: posting Spring Festival couplets. Chinese folk believe that every god must be posted, every door must be posted, and every object must be posted. During the Spring Festival, every household, no matter in the city or in the countryside, selects a pair of red Spring Festival couplets and sticks them on the door to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, in order to increase the festive atmosphere of the festival.
