The strings of red chilies under the eaves of the Chili Pepper house bear witness to a year of freshness and prosperity.

Pepper is indispensable in the daily life of Sichuan people. Sown in spring and harvested in midsummer, a few bunches of red peppers look much more festive in winter, hanging under the eaves. During the Chinese New Year, we cook a hot pot and wish it a much better year.
