----------------------------------------------------------------------------What's on the Cover? Lions and dragons symbolise luck and prosperity in Vietnamese culture. Hence, you’ll find the so-called “lion dance”: a colourful mix of costumes, dance and acrobatics accompanied by booming drum rhythms, performed not only around Lunar New Year, but also at opening ceremonies of new businesses. You might just be lucky enough to witness one strolling along the bustling streets of Saigon or Hanoi.
