飄色會景巡遊 The Procession

飄色會景巡遊 The Procession One of the high points of the festival is a parade of floats and lion and unicorn dances winding through the narrow streets of the island. Different local communities arrange their own floats. The stars of the show are the islanders' children -- heavily made up and dressed in costumes as mythological figures and modern Chinese heros and deities. Children are put onto a tiny seat attached to steel rods so that they look as though they are floating above the heads of the crowd. Colourful costumes help to cover up the seat.
