In anticipation of the January 25, 2020 Chinese New Year, a group of Fil-Chinese Dragon dancers performed a colorful Dragon Dance on Friday (24 January 2020) at the Manila City Hall Quadrangle to the delight of employees and visitors alike.

According to Wiki, Chinese dragons are believed to have control over water, rain, hurricanes and floods. They also represent power, strength and good luck. The Chinese believe that performing the dragon dance during festivals and celebrations drives away evil spirits and ushers in good luck and blessings for the community. (Benjie Cuaresma/IAmigo)
