The Year Of The Rooster Starts With A Bang in Belize
Mon, January 30, 2017
This year the Chinese community brought in their New Year with a bang. The community celebrated with a parade through Belize City, lead by two volunteers performing the Dance of the Lion. The lion visited several businesses throughout the city, blessing them with fortune for the coming year. The lion was accompanied by a percussion band and dozens of members of the Chinese community and spectators with an endless stream of firecrackers that could be heard around the city until late in the evening. The parade ended in front of Chon San Palace with a grand firecracker show.
