Lion Dance on New Year

After my morning rounds on the New Year Day, I went to Bukit Bintang to settle some bills when I noticed the roads heading towards Pavilion were blocked. I managed to get to the car park since it was well before noon and when I got to the main entrance, there were lion dance troupes all over Pavilion.

Apparently there was a competition from early in the morning. Many of the participants were school children and the place were filled.

The event where coming to the end when I settled in. I only managed to see the troupes clearing out after their performances. The entrance were still filled with people. There were events going on through out the day as if the Chinese New Year was just around the corner.

Quite a spectacle although I didn't bring the right hear for the occasion. The main foyer was still filled with Xmas decorations. I wonder what Pavilion would have in store this year. They always came up with the spectacular when the Chinese New Year came around.
