Haymarket, Lunar New Year, paifang


This paifang, also known as a pailou, is a traditional style of Chinese architectural arch or gateway structure which has been installed to celebrate the Sydney Lunar New Year Festival. It stands along George Street, at the end of Campbell Street, beside the Capitol Square Hotel.

      That's interesting because the Campbell Street neighbourhood is actually known as Thai Town.
