Provincial unicorn-lion-dragon dance festival gets animated

The 2018 provincial unicorn-lion-dragon dance festival has just concluded.

This year’s festival took place from December 22 to 23 with the participation of 14 troupes across the province. They performed a lot of special items, especially “Mai Hoa Thung”, the most dangerous technique of the unicorn-lion-dragon dancing art on poles.

It is known that the festival was organized by provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, aiming to celebrate prosperity and good fortune in the celebration of the Lunar New Year 2018. This was also a chance for the local unicorn-lion-dragon dance clubs to exchange and share skills of this unique art form.
