Dragon dance originated in the Han Dynasty and experienced generations. Dragon dancing is a ritual of sacrificing ancestors and praying for rain. It has gradually become a kind of cultural and recreational activities.

    In the Tang and Song Dynasties, dragon dance was a common form of festival.

    As for the origin of dragon dancing, there is a folk legend that one day, the Dragon King suffered from low back pain. All the medicines in the dragon palace were eaten and still failed. I had to become an old man to seek medical advice from the world. The doctor felt very strange after touching the pulse and asked, "you are not a human. If the Dragon King could not hide the truth, he had to tell the truth. So the doctor asked him to return to his original form, and he caught a centipede from his scales. After giving poison and dressing, the Dragon King recovered completely. In order to thank the doctor for his treatment, King Long said to the doctor, "As long as you dance like me, you can have a good weather and a good harvest." After this event came out, people thought that the Dragon could make clouds and distribute rain. When it was dry, people would dance dragons and pray for rain. There were rules of spring, summer, autumn and winter dancing black dragons. The Dragon represents the auspiciousness, honor and bravery in the Chinese nation, and it is also the symbol of rights. The Chinese people believe that the dragon is able to rise above the clouds and fall over the rivers and seas. Every time it appears, it will change dramatically. The combination of thunder and lightning has boundless power to call for rain and wind. Because of the respect and hope for dragons, people will dance dragons in festive days, praying for good luck and good luck. Today, dragon dance has become a traditional Chinese culture and art.

    Through continuous development and improvement, dragon dance technology has developed into an ornamental competitive sport, rather than simply a cultural entertainment program in festivals. Dragon dancing is a cultural art that combines martial arts, drum music, opera and art. The development of dragon dance has been passed down from generation to generation. Dragon dance has become an important folk festival today. In modern times, with the migration of Chinese people, the dragon dance movement spread to all parts of the world.

    Nowadays, there are dragon dancing activities where all Chinese live. With the development of the times, the manufacturing technology of the dragon is more and more superb, and the shape of the dragon is also growing larger and larger. It dances, rolls up and down, and circles left and right. The 384.3-meter-long "Century Golden Dragon" dragon lantern in Lugang Town, Changhua County, Taiwan Province is the world's longest dragon dance lantern, which is danced by 800 people in turn. The traditional dragon dancing "dragon" is usually placed in the local Dragon King Temple. On the day of dragon dancing, the dragon body is invited out of the temple with banners, gongs and drums and horns as the guide, and the dragon body is connected with the dragon head and the Dragon tail, and the ceremony of finishing is held.

    The dragon's body is tied into a round dragon shape with bamboo, joined by sections, covered with a huge red cloth with dragon scales. Every five or six feet, there is one person's pole. The head and tail are about ten feet apart. Long before a man holds a pole, a giant ball is erected at the top of the pole as a guide. During the dance, the ball swung around and around, and the dragon head grabbed the ball, causing the dragon to swim and fly. Dragon dance is a great program. It will be entertained wherever it goes.

    The dragon dance team sometimes can eat five or six times a day banquet, this is called "dragon for wine". When the dragon dance is over, the head and tail will be burned, and the dragon body will be sent back to the temple for reuse next year.
