"Kids of all ages will be delighted by the sight of a lucky red dragon snaking its way through London. Chinatown's annual Lunar New Year Sunday parade is enlivened by giant dragon and lion puppets that wind through the bustling streets. Then head to Leicester Square and you'll find a dedicated family zone, with free craft activities and dressing up. Or wend your way to Trafalgar Square for martial arts and Chinese pop on a big stage."
