This Sunday Boston's Chinatown will celebrate the Year of the Dragon. Part of the celebration will include the traditional Dance of the Lions, when teams of dancers parade beneath colorful animals with long tails through the streets.

Radio Boston intern Meara Sharma headed out for Chinatown earlier this week to get a preview.

This program aired on January 27, 2012.
