Dancing Lion up the Golden Hill

In the eyes of the Zhuang, Lion is looked as an auspicious sign. The performances of the Lion Dancing of the Zhuang include a “lion” performing on the high stage, two “lions” playing with one ball together, a “lion” performing on the Meihua posts and crossing a suspension bridge a “lion” dancing on the knifepoint and a “lion” dancing up the “Golden Hill”. The “Golden Hill” is composed of 35 benches built up in 17 layers, reaching a height of 8.5 meters. When the performers dress up as “lions” and step on the “Golden Hill”, they jump, fly and dance on the dangerously unstable hill. The whole performance is thrilling, attractive and humorous, making the audience react with surprise and delight.
