Image of Lion Dance Head Resting On The Floor


My uncle is the leader of a lion dance troupe so each year for Chinese New Year, we will have at least 2 lion dancers prancing around our house. It is lovely to watch. The kids will get to beat the gong and play with and pet the lions. After the lion dance performance, the troupe members are usually treated to a big lunch by my aunt. They usually stop at my house for lunch before continuing with their numerous performances on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year.

Here is a picture of a lion dance head resting on the floor just before this year's lion dance performance at our house. You can use it in your online writing but do remember to post a linkback to this page so I can see how you've used it.

Picture Of Chinese Lanterns

Every year for Chinese New Year, we would take our children to the temple to watch the lion dance. The temple would be filled with people, Chinese as well as tourists who came to join in the fun. I love to look up at this Row Of Beautiful Red Chinese Lanterns. 

The sky looks so blue and peaceful at the backdrop but do you know that down below is a riot of activities with loud sounds of lions prancing around and children and adults alike crowding around and trying to touch the dancing lions. The lions are throwing oranges at the crowd and receiving red angpows (red envelopes filled with money) from the delighted audience.
