Energetic Chinese Lion Dance of CNY 2024

For all we know that lion is an auspicious symbol of power and wisdom. Chinese lion dance is one of the most important event believing to usher in prosperity and good luck while chasing away bad luck and evil spirits. Performed by two “dancers” in lion costume that become the body of the lion where one in the front as the head and front limbs and another one behind will be the back and hind legs. In Penang especially during Lunar New Year, lion dance performances can be seen at Pengkalan Weld during the 8th day of the first month of lunar calendar as on the 9th, it would be a celebration of Jade Emperor’s Birthday by the Hokkiens. #cny2024 #travelwithgeo #aerialphotography #liondance #awesomepic #penangtravel
