As an international metropolis, Hong Kong is novel and highly attractive. In recent years, it has drawn an increasing number of immigrants and students seeking to settle in Hong Kong. Hong Kong blends Eastern and Western cultures, and its unique cultural customs are worth experiencing for new immigrants. The Year of the Monkey has arrived, and Hongkong Post will release the "Year of the Monkey" commemorative zodiac stamps on January 16 next year, including special stamps and miniature sheets, showcasing various monkey-themed crafts adorned with auspicious plant patterns, symbolizing good fortune and prosperity.
To celebrate the Lunar New Year, Hongkong Post is launching a silk stamp miniature sheet themed around the monkey, featuring patterns of peaches and peach blossoms, symbolizing blessings and longevity. Additionally, Hongkong Post is once again releasing the zodiac gold and silver stamp series "Zodiac Gold and Silver Stamp Miniature Sheet - Auspicious Goat and Spirit Monkey." The goat year stamp is made with silver foil stamping, while the monkey year stamp is made with 22K gold plating.
The official first day cover for the "Year of the Monkey" and the "Zodiac Gold and Silver Stamp Miniature Sheet - Auspicious Goat and Spirit Monkey" will be available for sale starting January 2.
