Malaysia aquarium takes Lunar New Year lion dance underwater Swimming gracefully in the water, a garishly-coloured Chinese dancing lion bobs around a tank at a Malaysian aquarium, as its legs paddle past fish and rocks to a crowd of curious viewers. A lion dance is a traditional Chinese art where two or more performers under a colourful head and cloak mimic a lion's movements to banging drums and cymbals during the Lunar New Year and other auspicious events.
