Dragon Dance in downtown Yuen Long , Hong Kong

Tin Hau’s Birthday - 2019年元朗天后寶誕會景巡遊 Dragon dance (舞龍) is a form of traditional dance and performance in Chinese culture. Like the lion dance, it is most often seen in festive celebrations. The dance is performed by a team of experienced dancers who manipulate a long flexible figure of a dragon using poles positioned at regular intervals along the length of the dragon. The dance team simulates the imagined movements of this river spirit in a sinuous, undulating manner.
