Dragons

This photo was taken by Katharine, and it shows two dragons above Coney Street in York.

Dragons are another of the traditional elements of the Chinese New Year, but I can't help but think that the faces of these dragons look more like owls!

Oh yes they do - I guess it's their style of dragon which is different from ours

I agree with you, they do look more like owls than dragons.

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

I was pleased that many of you agreed that the faces looked more like owls. Perhaps that was to ensure that people of a nervous disposition were not upset or frightened by dragons overhead!

I would agree about the faces. Hopefully they have cheered Coney street up !
January 25th, 2023  
Yes I can see the owls!

Thank you both. These attractions do add to the feel of the city, but sadly there are still too many empty shops in Coney Street.

It would be interesting to know what any of our Chinese residents think of them.
