With their exquisite design, rich colors, and unique cultural connotations, they showcase the charm of Chinese traditional culture.

The lion dance costumes consist of five dancers wearing white robes, holding giant lion heads, and adorned with golden scales, presenting a majestic image.

The lion dance originated in ancient China and is a folk dance with a long history.

In ancient times, the lion was regarded as a symbol of good luck, representing strength, courage, and wisdom.

By combining the lion with the dragon, the designer skillfully fused two animal images with different meanings to create a unique visual effect.

The color scheme of these lion dance costumes is mainly red, which symbolizes joy, enthusiasm, and happiness in Chinese culture.

In addition, the costumes are adorned with golden scales that not only enhance the visual impact but also make the entire dance more lively and energetic.
