History
The Chinese dragon is not only significant in the Zodiac but also plays a central role in Chinese culture. Dragon dances are a common sight during Chinese New Year celebrations and various festive events. These performances involve a team of dancers manipulating a long dragon puppet to bring good luck and ward off evil spirits.
