Dragon dance
During the daytime of the Lantern Festival, performances such as a dragon dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and beating drums while dancing will be staged. In the night, except for magnificent lanterns, fireworks provide a beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first full moon enters the New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the sky.
