舞狮是一项历史悠久的民间表演艺术，南北朝时期就开始流行，至今已有一千五百多年的历史。佛教中，狮子是文殊菩萨的坐骑，有吉祥之意。另外，狮子体态威武，是百兽之王。人们觉得舞狮能够消灾纳福，驱邪避鬼，因此每逢喜庆节日，都喜欢打鼓敲锣，舞狮助兴。“点睛”是舞狮前的一项重要活动，嘉宾把朱砂涂在狮子的眼睛上，象征给狮子以生命。“点睛”之后，真正的舞狮表演就开始了。舞狮者身披形似狮子的道具，踏着音乐的节奏，模拟狮子的看、站、走、跑、跳、滚、睡、抖毛等动作，形态逼真，惹人喜爱。

The lion dance is a traditional Chinese folk performing art. With a history of over 1,500 years, it became popular since Northern and Southern Dynasties. In Buddhism, lion is the mount of Bodhisattva Manjusri, representing luck and blessing. Besides, lion is strong and powerful, generally regarded as the king of all beasts, and thus people think it is able to expel evils and bring good fortune. On a festive celebration, people like to perform lion dance accompanied by drums and gongs. Dotting the eyes of the lion is a very important procedure before the lion dance. Usually, an honorable guest would be invited to dot the lion’s eyes with red pigment, symbolizing giving life to the lion. The performance will begin after that. The performers are usually dressed up like a lion and imitate various lion movements such as looking, standing, walking, running, rolling, jumping, and shaking heads to the rhythm of the music, which are quite lively and adorable.
