Dancers will perform traditional dance specially created for the moment, lasting 7 to 8 minutes each, on the sound of the drums and traditional cymbals. Enjoy demonstrations of spins and jumps.

In other words, if you’re looking for a nice and free event to mark this Asian-inspired day, here’s an original idea to celebrate the Lunar New Year on one of the most emblematic sites in town.

Happy Year of the Rat to all!
