‘On the Spot’ – 2009′s CHINESSE NEW YEAR CELEBRATION

Last February 2, Sydney was the hotspot for the magic of the Chinese New year. The streets were full of “floats” in a big and colorful parade.

Many schools made performances on the streets, with martial arts demonstrations, typical clothes, dance, gymnastics, etc… But the main things were the floats, everyone with a different concept, with the animals from the Chinese Zodiac, and of course the center of the Night “the Ox”, because this is his year!.

The celebration finished with a spectacular show of fireworks at Cockle Bay in Darling Harbour for around 10 minutes.

An amazing experience who shows the friendship and cultural exchange between nations.
