Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-02-16

When it comes to the Chinese New Year, the most lively event is the dragon and lion dance.

The dragon, derived from the ancient Chinese totem, represents auspiciousness, dignity, bravery, and is a symbol of power;

The lion, on the other hand, symbolizes bravery, strength and heroism, and is regarded as an auspicious beast.

People use dragon and lion dances to pray for good weather and abundant harvests, bringing good luck and good fortune.

As the finale of the Chinese New Year, the dragon and lion dance is highly regarded by people for its majestic melody and joyful atmosphere.

In performances, dragons and lions are often combined with auspicious motifs, such as hydrangeas, bats, etc.

When people perform, they will feel a strong auspicious atmosphere, which will inspire joy and blessings in their hearts.

When the dragon is churning in the sea of clouds and roaming the world, and the lion fights and jumps with other beasts, a spirit of forging ahead bravely and defying difficulties is being passed down among the children of China.

This is the spiritual outlook of the Chinese nation, carrying people's pursuit and admiration for beautiful qualities, and inspiring people to unite and forge ahead.

We believe that the dragon and lion dance, which has been passed down for thousands of years, will release a stronger vitality in the new year.
