The weekend after the Chinese New Year, there was a big celebration of it in central London. There was music...
Monkeys everywhere!
Signs of prosperity for the new year.
And of course, lovely lantern-art!
The curly dragon was definitely one of my favorites.
There were performances of all sorts of things - dance, music, acrobatics...
Even a puppet!
These guys were amazing.
I stopped by for delicious custard-filled fishies.
Admired the lovely lanterns (though they seem to be a semi-permanent fixture).
And saw bits of the parade that had taken place earlier that morning.
Dragons...
Of all sorts.
Even a whole building on a float!
It made for a lovely wander around town to be sure, and a most fun way to welcome a new year!
