Gold symbolises prosperity and this year’s Lunar New Year theme at Sunway Pyramid literally banks on this notion with an array of gold elements to welcome the first animal in a new 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac. Apart from the gold, there are plenty of hanging red lanterns, lending a festive vibe to the facade of an ancient Chinese house complete with windows decorated with the Chinese coins.
