Lion Dance Competition @ Ngee Ann City

I stumbled across this massive Lion Dance competition at Ngee Ann City last week. I was amazed at the skills of the performers throughout the 20 mins I was glued to the unfolding spectacle. The two performers from the team I saw were strutting on unwieldy 10-metre high posts, often on one leg, or balanced on the other performer. What was more impressive was the large crowd that had build up. Although I had knew of television telecast of such events, I now know how dramatic and exciting the competition can be. Someone should organize a international competition and invite the top performers from around the globe. I'm sure that will be a great media event and tourist attraction.
