The annual Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance

The Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance has a history of over 140 years and is a traditional activity listed as a national intangible cultural heritage. The Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance, which had been suspended for many years due to the epidemic, was finally performed again in Tai Hang during this year's Mid-Autumn Festival. It was performed continuously from September 28th to 30th for Hong Kong people and tourists from all over the world. The fire dragon is 67 metres long and is danced by more than 300 dragon dancers as it weaves through the streets and alleys of Tai Hang and Causeway Bay Road. The photo was taken at Wun Sha Street in Tai Hang. On all three nights, hosts and organizers of the Fire Dragon Dance provided narration and explanations to the audience, allowing them to understand the story and details of the Fire Dragon Dance. For example, the materials used to make the fire dragon, the length of the fire dragon, etc. In addition to the Fire Dragon Dance, Tai Hang residents also hope to pass this historical activity on to the next generation so that the custom of the Fire Dragon Dance can be passed down from generation to generation. #Tai Hang #festival celebration #Mid-Autumn Festival
