Lai Chi Wo Village, East Gate – Red Lanterns and Shrine

《Red Lanterns and Shrine Setup》: The hanging red lanterns are classic symbols found throughout traditional villages and festivals, signifying good luck and prosperity. An Earth God shrine (Fuk Tak Chek San) is usually positioned on the right side of the gatehouse (facing the entrance), embodying the local custom of “greeting the hosts when entering a house, and honoring the gods when entering a village” to seek divine protection for the community.
