Chinese New Year Parade: A Grand Dragon Parade with Drummers, Acrobats, Fireworkers and Lanterns in Front of the Temple – This is how it could look

Educational and festive scene of the Chinese New Year parade (春节游行). Setting: a Chinese city street with a traditional Chinese temple visible in the background (curved roof lines, red pillars, decorative dragons on the ridge). Street lined with red paper lanterns and red and gold banners with Chinese characters for 'good luck' and 'prosperity'. Main event: a large dragon parade — the long dragon body carried through the street by many people in red and gold costumes. In front: a person carrying the Dragon Ball on a long pole. Alongside: stilt-walkers (gao qiao) in elaborate costumes; acrobats doing somersaults and cartwheels; traditional musicians playing a large frame drum, gongs, and a suona. On the sidelines: families watching, children on parents' shoulders, red envelopes (hongbao) being handed out. Firecrackers going off (long red strings hanging from buildings). Flower and chrysanthemum decorations everywhere.
