China Storyteller Partnerships • Lion Dance

Lion dance originated in Foshan city, Guangdong province. Modified from court lion dance in the Tang Dynasty, today's lion dance is Han people's folk culture integrating martial arts, dance and music. It has a history of more than 1,000 years in Guangdong, and was included in the first batch of State-Level Intangible Cultural Heritage List. China Daily Multimedia invited three foreign content creators to Shenzhen, Guangdong province, to experience Chinese lion dance culture.
