Under the blue sky of Kathmandu, the dragon dance team rolls and jumps to the beat of the drums, and the movements are both powerful and agile; Not to be outdone, the lion dance team was not to be outdone, and the head and tail of the lion were tacitly coordinated by two dancers, showing the courage and liveliness of the lion through various difficult movements; The dancing unicorn shows the peace and dignity of the ancient Chinese mythical beast unicorn with its unique shape and dance steps.
The audience applauded continuously, and they took out their mobile phones to record this rare wonderful moment.
