On Sunday the 29th January, we went to Leister Square, China Town, to film the great annual Chinese New Year Festival.
As we entered the narrow streets of China Town we were suprised to see such a huge crowd. We were able to smell the strong chinese aroma before evening stepping onto the streets. Decoration filled the town up with baloons colours and the noises were filled up by crowds cheering and the children playing with the fire poppers. There was alot going on starting from, street stalls selling handycrafts and hot food, leading the way to the Lion dance which were being performed in front of shop to shop wishing all businesses in the town a successful new year. It was great to see so many people from different cultures who were able to enjoy this festival all together, it was truly a cheerful outing.
