Chinese New Year festivals - Chinatown Melbourne , Glen Waverley and Box Hill in Victoria, Australia
Large crowds throng to join the festivities celebrating the Chinese or Lunar New Year.
A time to immerse in Chinese culture: the vibrant colour of dragon parades and lion
dances, the air filled with the noise of drum beats, clanging cymbals and fire crackers,
with an assortment of delicious smells wafting from hawker food stalls and eateries.
