*~*LION DANCE*~*
During the entire Chinese New Year festivities,
Lion Dance troupes will roam around performing
at houses, offices, hotels and shopping complexes.
It is said that the Lion Dance will ward off evil spirits.
The dance is a spectacular event, where two performers,
one the head and the other the tail, will perform acrobatic stunts.
This often involving grabbing ang pows hanged high above.
The dance is accompanied by loud drums and cymbals.
