Often receiving publicity in festive occasions, but rarely appreciated up close and personal.  The lion dance is a surefire way to add upbeat to any event - and whose to argue with a centuries old art designed to do just that?  But by no means does this beast from the East show its age in the 21st century.  At night, the lions can be decked out with neon lights - as if just set loose from a rave party.  These acrobatic performers are highly recommended for almost any occasion.
