This year Lviv celebrates the Chinese New Year for the seventh time. In front of the Opera House there are the main symbol of a new year, fair and performance of kung fu masters. There was a great dragon show in a city center and later there was a big laser show for the residents of Lviv and for the guests. The holiday of spring (that is the way the Chinese call their New Year) is usually combined with a tradition of giving presents to each other necessarily in red wrapping.
