Chinese New Year in Leuven

Posted on .

Chinese dragons roaming the streets of Leuven.

Last weekend the Chinese community of Leuven celebrated their start of the new year for the first time in Leuven. The weather was awful (lots of wind and tons of nearly ice cold rain descended on us), but we quite enjoyed the exhibition shows of the local martial arts and dancing groups, and the march through the city with the dragons leading the way.

Here's to a great Year of the Pig!

The dragon puppets, ready to come alive.
