Where there are Chinese people, there are dancing lions. Lion dance is a typical representative of the Chinese cultural quintessence. 

有华人的地方就有醒狮。舞狮艺术是中国国粹与喜庆文化的代表。

In old times, the lion dance meant to protect houses from the evil spirits. So it is the necessary program in Lingnan during the Spring Festival. Rich expression and varied movements, even imitating people's dozing make it just as a “traveling emoji”. 

古时候舞狮有驱邪镇宅的寓意，是岭南春节必备节目。醒狮神情丰富、动作多变，还可以模仿人们打瞌睡，是行走的表情包。

This year, Mei Gaomei and lion dance, a Chinese national dance drama, combines “Xing Shi”, southern style boxing, dancing and other traditional folk intangible cultural elements, and utilizes advanced black box theatre equipment and VR technology. Exciting! Come and watch “Xing Shi” in Macao on July 8.

今年民族舞剧《醒狮美高梅》将醒狮、南拳、舞蹈和其他传统民间非遗传统文化元素结合，利用顶尖规格的黑盒剧场设备以及VR虚拟现实与实景无缝对接，扣人心弦！7月8号，来澳门看醒狮!

Look! Lively Lingnan Culture! Mei Gaomei and lion dance, a Chinese national dance drama, will be performed in Macao in July, 2021.
