Elaborate parades occupy a major part of the Chinese New Year celebrations.Thousands throng the streets in rich costumes, flaunting colorful flags, banners and elaborate floats (usually of dragons), flashing lanterns, bursting crackers, beating drums and dancing and prancing in all their glory. All these make it a spectacle worth watching. And if you manage to be a part of the Chinese New Year celebrations, you’re sure to enjoy the majestic lion dances that’s a famous Chinese New Year tradition.

There’s a theme to these parades every year, which is pertaining to the Chinese New Year symbol of that year. For instance, if 2007 or the Chinese Year 4705 is the Year of The Pig, it’s quite likely that the floats, flags, banners will feature the Pig as its main theme.
