Lion Dance

This morning I was passing by a row of shop houses on the way to work and saw across the road, lion dance!

Many business (and some household too) invite the Lion Dance Troupe to perform the "cai ching"(plucking the greens) "採青" to bring good luck and prosperity to them.

Lion Dance performed for us just before lunch.

Yesterday, at my workplace, we had our annual lunch, always on the 7th day of the Lunar New Year. (The 7th day is suppose to signify Man's Day, ie all our Birthday)



Just before lunch, the Lion Dance was performed. It was so loud and boisterous. After the left, lunch started. (yey!)


Oh, just look at them, each lion had 2 men performing. To get that high up, one person is standing on the other person's thigh. The person that has the guy standing on his thigh is also carry the other person. They must be really strong.

lion's head on the table...

This is not Simba's head, but two heads that belong to the two lions that's going to perform the Lion Dance.

This was spotted at The Centrepoint. One of the popular shopping malls in Singapore.



They are popular during Chinese New Year. If you are interested, you can read more at wikipedia.
