A fire dragon dance was showcased Friday by the Tujia ethnic group in central China's Hunan Province to celebrate the Winter Solstic, a traditional Chinese festival.

To welcome the shortest day of the year, locals put up a 48-meter long stretch of fire and performed a dragon dance with a 128-meter-long fire dragon, made up of a bamboo structure covered with burning incense sticks.
