The Dragon is the fifth of the 12 Chinese zodiac animals, and people born under this sign are said to be confident, lucky and gifted. The dragon dance is a traditional element of Chinese New Year celebrations.
It involves several participants who perform underneath a vibrant and decorative dragon costume that is held up with poles. Their dance mimics the undulating movements of a dragon.
As the dragon is a symbol of power, nobility and authority, the face of the costume often has an intimidating expression.
A special fireworks version of the dragon dance is also performed in some regions.
