Image description

Dragon dance for the Tin Hau Festival A Chinese dragon dance winds its way through crowds of spectators on a street in Yuen Long during celebrations for the Taoist Tin Hau Festival. Original Manuscript Caption: Amid clashing cymbals and rolling drums comes a 100ft. dragon dancing and twisting down the street. Shop owners and schoolboys, housewives and factory workers all stop what they are doing; even the bus has to pull up on one side of the street, to watch the parade on the main street of Youen Long during the Tin Hau Festival.
