September 28, 2023, Hong Kong, China: Participants in Tai Hang carry a dragon and a dragon ball march through a street. In the 19th century the people in the village of Tai Hang in Hong Kong believed they miraculously stopped a plague with a fire dragon dance. Since then, it has become an annual tradition, where up to 300 performers dance the fire dragon dance, made up of 72,000 sticks of burning incense and a 67-metre-long dragon, through the narrow streets of Tai Hang. The spectacle attracts huge crowds year after year, and is back in full force after dwindling participation during the Covid-19 pandemic.
